Today I got to sleep in. The alarm going off early and hitting snooze was not an issue. However, I was a bit hungover from the 4 glasses of wine the night before. But I sucked it up and ran 3 miles. I felt like I could have ran longer but had to get home so Josh could head to work.
I focused on my posture while running. I noticed by making a small change it increased my speed. Also, I realized I need new running shoes or an insert to support my arch. I focused on those damn voices I hear every morning and decided to create faces for them...An angel and a demon. Now that's original...LOL. I am not crazy, despite what Josh thinks.
The peace and quite while running allows me to plan the day and focus, even while listening to my ipod. It's amazing what I can get done. I need to remember this feeling every morning when my alarm goes off.
Awesome web blog! Good job on getting out there and hitting the street this morning. Obviously alchohal is a depresant and going to work against you accompilishing goals as far as working out goes...
ReplyDeleteSince im your second member i will give a little background on my running experience, cool?
I was introduced to running in my early 20's by my father. I have always been phyically active but did not take to running initially. I just did it to bond with my dad. We started out on two and three mile jogs in Southern CA. after a couple months of my dad prodding me along I noticed I was running without the old man there to "slow me down". I was trying to break a five minute mile and training for the San Diego half marathon, both if which i did. Since that time i moved, lost momentum and eventually quit training that way. But I kept working out, wieght training and doing some cadio to stay lean. Running remained an itch and i want to start again. Sooo thanks for the blog. RP
