I woke up at 5am this morning and after a mental and physical push from my sister I actually got out of bed by 5:15. I was in the gym by 5:30 and running by 5:36, I had to find something to watch on TV obvi.
My run this morning started off slow. I hadn’t ran since two Saturday’s ago when I did my 5K fun run for cancer and I could tell. My legs were just not doing what my brain wanted and when my Nike app chimed that it took me 17 minutes to run a mile I was ready to throw in the towel all together.
I didn’t. Instead I pushed for the second half of my run and got my time to a little more reasonable 15 minute mile, still not my best but better than 17 minutes. I almost cried when I heard her come over my ear buds.
I decided then and there that my next run on Thursday would be outside. My pacing is extremely better when I’m outdoors I feel better and ultimately I enjoy the run more.
I set my intervals this morning for a 1:30 run / 1:00 walk and plan to adjust in two weeks. According to the picture above I burned 393 calories but my Nike app said 431 so I'm just going to go with the 431 because duh.
After I finished my run I stretched it out came home had a coffee and got ready for work. I worked 8-5 and 530-930 at my second job and then for some unknown reason thought it would be a good idea to do two a days. I went back to the gym and did a quick glute and hamstring workout.
Now as I lie in bed writing this post I can already tell tomorrow is going to be a sore one. But it hurts so good!
I will see you tomorrow with an update.
