I was seriously contemplating bailing onmy my run. Just another example of that whole getting out the door thing. But Husband happened to come home earlier than usual and basically told me to deal with it. That was the push I needed. I put on my running clothes and headed out to meet the group.
And I'm really glad that I did. I went out 3.5 miles easy with a running partner. I didn't feel as strong at the end as I did on Saturday, but I felt okay. And this morning my legs are actually a bit sore. The good kind of sore.
The plan moving forward is a 3 mile run this evening. Then another 3.5 on Thursday. Friday is rest/cross training. Saturday will be my "long run."
I can do this.
you can dooooooooo ittttt.... ya, we know :-)
ReplyDeleteit has been super windy here too, so I feel you angst and just like you, when I see the trees bending in the wind I think UGH!!!
ReplyDeleteGood for you to go and meet up with the group...
It has been windy here as well and we've had quite a few thunderstorms lately. It makes training tricky. Good job on getting out there!
ReplyDeleteYou must live in the central US as well. Been the same here, but I am dreading the 90 degree days with no wind.
ReplyDeletesometimes that push is all we need. wtg hubs for getting you out there! (i don't like the wind either, but the good sore it totally worth it!)
ReplyDeleteYes you can do it!
ReplyDeleteI hate running in the wind though so I don't blame you for not wanting to go
the wind at least keeps you cool? no? (i'm trying here, haha) :)
ReplyDeleteway to go getting out there!
Nice job getting out there even though the weather was extra crappy!
ReplyDeleteNICE JOB getting out there even in the crap weather. The wind is the worst!!
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing like beating Mother Nature.
ReplyDeleteYes you can do it!
ReplyDeleteFunny how it takes more internally to go run 3 miles than it takes to run 10 miles. I am usually excited to tackle my long run, but right now, this rebuilding the base thing is HARD!
Your husband is awesome too!
Thanks for your comment earlier this week. Thanks for giving me the reassurance I needed.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to have someone else help make you accountable. :) Nice running, Lisa!
ReplyDeleteWell done! I hate wind
ReplyDeleteIt's so important to have a supportive partner. That little bit of encouragement (or shove out the door LOL) is all that's needed sometimes. I'm glad to read that your running seems to be going well again. So the injections helped?
