I ran about 11.25 miles today without a care in the world at what the hell I was doing. How awesome is that? My plan had me running 13.1 miles but I didn't need to really go that far so why not be shy two miles. My body got the point! The best part!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I dragged Grigs out to go with me. We kept pace and chatted the entire time. Our faces lit up like a Christmas tree when we were done because we were so damn happy that we did it. I'm pumped, I'm happy, I'm excited, I feel incredible, I feel indestructible and I'm on top of the world with a nice attitude of "I'm going to kick butt at my races!". Even though I have two more months of training I'm so freaking ready to race this weekend. Bring it on!
Roxy was in daycare today so I was able to get groceries in the morning BY MYSELF and was able to put them all away without yelling at anybody. When I was done I moved around the house to clean up a bit and then out the door for the run. Hit TJ Maxx afterwards then home to shower/shave (really needed both) and then to the bus stop to get Lincoln. Quite time is now over. Played, made dinner, yard work, 2 loads of laundry, lunches and clean up. After supper the family took a nice bike ride to get some fresh air. WHAT A GREAT DAY!
Food - Sprout bread with yogurt for breakfast, pb&j on whole wheat sandwich thin for my pre-run snack, recovery bar after run, protein shake, diet soda, a few cookies (I deserved them) and for supper I made pulled pork but with chicken, chick pea/kidney bean salad and tossed salad. Very delicious meal and I had no 3 year old bugging me while I was making it. That is why supper was nicer tonight.
Butt - did not hurt at all during the run. My hamstrings and right calf were very tight towards the end but right now I feel really good. I did not make out with my foam roller at all today which I would have liked to do but the bed will feel good enough.
Time to watch the boob-tube for a bit!
You killed that run Bendz!We sure did have some good laughs. And we both still came back with our socks on,no emergencies in the woods! Cant wait to do it all over again with you at rev 3.
