Got my 6 miles in by the skin of my teeth! Had to go to the gym so I'd be forced to get on the treadmill, no distractions. I was feeling extremely lazy today and it was too hard to step out the door and run. Luckily the runner's high kicked in a couple miles into it and lasted the rest of the day! It was hard however to run on a tummy full of chocolate! I think it will be easier to stay away from the leftover stocking candy if I can just remember how my stomach felt during the run- yuck! Let's just say I couldn't go too fast for fear of seeing the chocolate again! Ended up w/ a 9:50 average pace. Can't seem to break that 9:50 barrier lately. Probably need to add some strides to my workouts. Heather, Buff & I have a 8 miler planned for the morning- so I gotta get my Zzz's! Love the new sleep entry, hope it will make me think twice about staying up all hours of the night watching mindless TV or playing on the internet! (Tomorrow will be my first chance to really play w/ the new garmin- fun!) |
