Today was just a quick run. Make it a three way 2 miler! Hahah Dara joined Marielle and I on a quick run.
I don't have much to say other than I'm happy to have completed a full mile without walking one bit! I know we can do more!!
Marielle has this crazy idea about me waking up before sunrise to run...I am determined to gradually wake up earlier. When it comes time for the 6 am race I'll have worked my way up to waking up early. For now..until after the holidays...I'll run at 9 am!
Short run = short blog.
XOXO

Tired....
Well, I've been at it again....LAZY!
Ran today tho with Marielle. Our first run together! 3.75 miles in 42 minutes. Ran constant for .90 miles....then Mar needed a walk. She hasn't been doing her training...tsk tsk! But I don't fault her for it. We have our goals and we are sticking to them.
I will post our map. We went the route that I like, and THEN some. I'm glad to have her as my partner for the pure sake that I know she just won't ever give up! It's inspiring when someone says "We can start home...or go longer! Eh, let's take the long route!" Also great, even when we need to walk it out, that she says "we're still going the distance, running or not!"
No music...just good chat! Temperature was warmish...50's. Windy tho! New sneaks are proving to be amazing! Nike cold gear, the same, thank goodness as it's only going to get colder!
Need my routine back! It's been hard to keep. Gotta push! Potentially running tomorrow...and def over the weekend!
For now....bed!

Alright...
I have to admit, I lost motivation for a week there. I got a little lazy and wasn't getting my ass out of bed to run! I need to remember that I'm doing this for myself...no one else! Laziness is only a crap ass excuse! I did, however, continue with yoga for the week, so I wasn't completely useless!
I ran today...and did fabulous! Still in my old sneaks as I am still breaking in my new ones. I'm afraid of switching. I know I need to eventually, just making sure my feet are totally happy with the new ones before completely doing the deed and switching over!
I ran 3.15 miles in 33 minutes. It was a good route, mostly downhill toward the Empire State Building. I ran pretty much all the way into Long Island City. Walked for a very small bit of it...considering I took off a week, I think it was a great success. So far, my fastest run yet!
Ting Tings radio on Pandora today. Good mix of Metric, Modest Mouse, etc. I found this station a bit more fun to run to...I was pushing myself a little harder. Still looking for fun music to run to...but this may be the funnest so far.
I'm in the middle of rolling while blogging. I got a roller for my body, which is exactly like it sounds...a big rolling pin that I can roll out all the knots in my muscles. It's like my very own personal deep tissue massage. Love it!
Going to watch the NYC Marathon tomorrow (Sunday). I went to the location of the finish line yesterday and took pictures. It was inspiring! Don't know if one day I'll be able to run a full marathon...but it will be awesome to cheer all those runners on! 26.2 miles seems crazy...but so does 13.1. I'm determined! I will do this!
110 days, 8 hours, 32 minutes, and counting until race day! Back to my regular training schedule! Maybe an extra run thrown in tomorrow.
We shall see~!!
