OK. Confession. I went for a run last night after I said I was giving myself another week before I would get back to it. Yesterday marked 10 days since running the New Jersey Marathon. It was a GORGEOUS Spring evening.
i had just walked with Duncan around the neighborhood for a half hour.
It was also the first day nothing hurt. My hip felt good, my ankle felt good, my knee felt good. So I made a last minute decision to just go run a little bit. I’m so happy with my decision. It was the free-est 2 miles ever:
• No Garmin
• No Hat
• No KT Tape
• No music
• No time goals
I came home, stretched, foam rolled and then had the last glass of wine from the bottle I started on Monday. 🙂
I woke up this morning feeling good. I’m still going to lay low in the running department though. Maybe wait until the weekend to run again. I’ll see how I feel. But for now, those 2 miles put me in a good mood and i can carry along today.
Do you do most of your running (or any exercise) by a watch?
Do you like wine? If so, red or white?
Do you have trees in full bloom where you are?
I LOVE wine. I prefer red, but a glass of chilled white wine in the summer really hits the spot. I always wear my garmin when I run. I can’t help it. I definitely already have a watch tan line.
telltale sign of a runner…the watch tan =)
I pretty much always have a watch (or the info on the treadmill) for my runs – I’m a total data junkie and love keeping track of my mileage.
I don’t go out of my way to drink wine, I prefer beer, but I do have some from time to time. Red, preferably.
The trees have gone crazy here! Pollen everywhere! You know, and pretty flowers 🙂
data junkie lol!
Yes, I pretty much always have my watch on when I run! If Garmin doesn’t record it, did it really happen?
Yes, I like wine. I prefer red, but these days I’m loving some Ciroc with orange juice on the rocks.
Yes, I live in the southeast, so we have had blooming trees for a while now! Temps in the high 80s and low 90s lately!
well the OJ means it’s like breakfast and breakfast is the most important meal of the day right? =)
