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~!!
