Patting myself on the back for getting out tonight! I slept in and missed my 6am run. No partner to run with this morning and no motivation to get out in the dark & cold. Then rushed to get kids to school, vote and onto Vegas for a mortgage convention. Didn't get back until late in afternoon. Hubby was a sweetie and shuffled kids around for me today and took care of dinner (pizza). After dinner and full of pizza I decided it was time to sneak away for a run. I'm usually wiped out by this time of day, but I felt good so I decided to go. It was a great evening run! One month after the marathon and I think this is the first run since the marathon where I have felt really good. It was dark and the temp was perfect and cool. I took the IPOD and elected not to take a watch-didn't want to worry about time tonight. I started off on one of my usual 4 mile routes knowing I would want to make it longer. I was able to extend it a mile making it into a nice new loop with a view! Looking forward to running this loop more often. |
