Personal:
I run with God. I use my running time to contemplate, to pray and to listen for His call. I'm married to a non-runner, but a supportive one, and we have four children.
Got back from Chicago late last night and gym was closed by the time I got there. Oh well.
For some reason when I got to the gym, every single piece of cardio equipment was taken. So I did my workout backwards--lifted legs, abs and lower back, then ran. My legs felt dead, maybe because I lifted first, but maybe not.
Isn't that funny? I HATE lifting first, unless I'm lifting in the AM and running in the PM (which I do 2-3 times a week).
My legs probably just felt dead because I had my first day of work in 6 days and I was tired! It likely had nothing to do with the lifting, since I didn't go extra hard or anything.
