Saturday is my official long run day. While most runners don't consider 4mi to be a lengthy run, for this chicka, it was quite a feat to tackle. I was kind of dreading it all day. I had the procrastination bug in the worst. way. ever. I cleaned the condo, did grocery shopping, made lunch, all but run. Finally 5pm rolled around and my hubby was headed to the gym, so we carpooled. Having him on the treadmill next to me really kept me accountable and motivated. I found that if I could just get to the 2.5/3 mi range, I could feel really motivated to finish that last mile. Normally I cover the time and mileage with a towel so I don't fixate, but as I approached my mileage I wanted to see!!!!!
It took me 45 minutes, but I did it! Insert gleeful cheering here!
After which, I stretched, then promptly showered the stank that is running off of me. And ate pizza. Glorious, glorious, organic-fair-trade-locally-grown pizza. www.restaurantpi.com *Nom nom nom* : )
