P: went to the gym early... with Evie... and was thinking I'd do about a 5k... (especially since she gets so board)... but she suggested 7 miles... and I went with it for a few reasons:
the weekend is for your *long* run... 7 is the longest distance ever ran...
7 miles is what the Bay 2 Breakers run is about....
she asked me 'how long' around 2.5 miles... and I was feeling good
I had no where I had to be... and was thinking of the guilt free day that would come after this
I thought I could so I did....
lessons learned from the run...
..... if the sister who challenges you hasn't got the proper equipment on .... it might not be a good idea... especially if she is competitive.... and wants to finish first.... I was running to "walking on broken glass" and she was feeling like she was.... ouch!.... body glide is a lifesaver... if you forget your water bottle in the car, go out and get it.... run walk run with a few challenges thrown in like 1 mile non-stop... or 1/4 mile sprint... speeds the time up... and pack some food for after the run (grapes, oranges, gatorade)... but most of all what I learned is 7 miles is doable... and feels good... and its 1/2 way to a 1/2... SWEET!
C: today I had a lot of outfits... pj's. gym. fashion show. ranch (sheep work). to the parents for dinner. then home. which means lots of laundry & shoes.
fancy footwear. |
another great day.
xoxo, HH
