I did it!! I ran today!! It is now 10:20pm and I just walked in the door from running but never the less, I ran. This morning, I was supposed to go with Heidi but I woke up with a soar throat and decided it was my bodies polite way of telling me to sleep in (at least that is what I told myself my body was telling me). So I slept in (sin #1) hoping that I would go later tonight. Then, I went to work and committed sin #2, I ate a chocolate donut (yes, Kelli, I know you have already forgiven me for this), not to mention a few little candy caramels ( i don't know what was with me today). Then I worked late, ran to piano lessons, then came home had a quick bite to eat (pizza, of all healthy things, but Tyler made it so I appreciated that). Then ran out the door to Young Women's, then walked in the door at about 8:45 giving me enough time to say goodnight to the little ones, visit with Ty for a minute and then JaNae came over to meet me for our run. So, we walk outside at about 9:30 and just as we walk outside, it starts to rain. I sit for a minute thinking, is this a sign that I should not go running......... then guess what popped into my head? Donut, pizza, etc...... you NEED to go running. So, despite the rain, the wind and the time of night, we did, we ran. And, the best part is that I felt GRRREAATTTT!!!(imagine the Wheeties Tiger saying that when you read that part). I don't know if it was the sheer knowledge of knowing I had an extra 1000 calories to burn, my new shoes (thanks for the re-lace Ty), the company, or the rain? I think it was a combination of all the above. Now, I am going to go shower and maybe get some reading in to calm me down so that I can get to sleep to meet JaNae again in the morning. Night. Avg pace: 8:33 |
