My ankle is quite sore today after Saturday's run *sigh*.....So I hopped on the stair climber. Not sure that was the best thing, but I got a fantastic workout! That thing is so flippin hard....just like running!
5.3 miles in 45 minutes
Can I say brrrr.... Really..brrrrrr freezing! I got out of my car at 7:55am for the start time of 8:00am because it was so flippin' cold! 9 degrees mind you! I had on 4 shirts, 2 pairs of tights/windpants and it took me a 1.5 miles to start to feel my toes!
I really had a fun race. I had NO expectations other than I didn't want to come in last! I know my training isn't at top notch considering my recovering. I wasn't stressed out or psyched out! This whole "I just run what I run" attitude is awesome! I think I run so much better because I don't care as much!
I ran the race with my hubby (who is really starting to get fast...I'm gonna have to watch myself), my SIL and BIL. My SIL is SMOKIN' fast, so I really didn't plan on staying with her. She's been running lots and is in awesome shape.
Mile 1 (8:24) : I totally can't feel my toes. I decided to try to NOT look at my Garmin. I worried it would mess with my mind! But I looked at the mile markers and thought I started out WAY to fast. I was feeling good though. The mile markers were off from my Garmin distance.
Mile 2 (8:11): I looked at that time and thought I was going to blow up later on, but I still felt really good and was still running with my SIL.
Mile 3 (8:23): Looking forward to being done. My SIL took off and I just kept thinking to myself, "keep her in sight....keep her in sight".
Mile 4 (7:46): This is where my lack of fitness started to show. I had about 1/3 mile left to go and I thought I was going to puke. I kept thinking to myself, "just make it to the line and then puke...don't puke on yourself".
My SIL in was only 30 seconds ahead of me and hubby was only 2 minutes behind me! Such a fun race despite the cold! My kids ended up staying in the van, watched movies and ate donuts with Grandma. So I ate donuts on the way home and then really thought I would loose my cookies :) I was cold all morning long!
My ankle felt really good after yesterday's race - this totally surprised me! But I didn't want to run on it, so I hopped on a stairmaster.
45 minutes
5.33 miles
Such a great workout! I did alittle shopping today (no early bird though).
A stairclimber was open this morning at the gym, so I quickly snatched it up! 6 miles on that darn thing and buckets of sweat!
6 miles - 55:45 minutes
Ankle feels good today!
