Wednesday Woes
Wednesday Woes
Woken by the snow plows in the lots near my condo, I decided to get to the gym before work. Body Shred class done, and then 15 minutes of walking on the treadmill.

Re: Wednesday Woes
Today was my first day of running since last Thursday- I've been down & out with a nasty cold, but since I started to feel a lot better yesterday evening I decided to go out for an easy 10k this morning.
Keep on rolling, just a mile to go. Keep on rolling my old buddy, you're moving much too slow.
Re: Wednesday Woes
I have physio this afternoon. I will run when I get home (only going to the pub part of runpub since my mum is in town).

Re: Wednesday Woes
DH is working at home today, so rather than go to the gym, we both did upper body weights and core work at home this morning. I have plans to run after work but that largely depends on work. Last night I managed to get out just in time to make it to belly dance class. Glad I got there, because it was a super high energy and fun workout.

Re: Wednesday Woes
A thin layer of fresh snow following two days of gentle melting made for treacherous footing. Very cautious 14K done.
Re: Wednesday Woes
7K with the clinic last night, and 11 on the TM while I was watching curling. All felt pretty good!

9k in a 'gentle Irish mist' - but it sure beats slogging through the snow.

I did a tough hour spin class at lunch. Heading to the gym after work for a cardio/weight class.

I run because it's my passion, and not just a sport. Every time I walk out the door, I know why I'm going where I'm going and I'm already focused on that special place where I find my peace and solitude. Running, to me, is more than just a physical exercise...it's a consistent reward for victory!

Re: Wednesday Woes
The cold I am fighting continues, as does day 3 of my no running streak!
Re: Wednesday Woes
I feel like I might be fighting off a cold. I've decided to take a new approach on it: run shorter distances every day rather than longer less often. Keep the immune up and feeling fit without overtaxing. So another 2 miles on the treadmill.

5 miles outside tonight. A little slippy for my taste.

Re: Wednesday Woes
Two days off because of a literal pain in the rear . 30 min on the bike and 20 min of aggressive piriformis stretching tonight, and I will hopefully be back at it tomorrow.

Re: Wednesday Woes
I had a really sucky run today, on snow-over-brown slush-over-ice, with wind-blown snow in my face most of the way. At least I got out there.

Re: Wednesday Woes
I had a lovely evening run with Popeye, it was so mild, I felt like I could go on forever. We did 45 mins.
