Last week I went for a 4 mile run after work. I was a little apprehensive about running since it was 40 degrees out. In the past, I have never liked to run in cold weather. I have decided that this winter, I am going to continue my training outside and get use to running in the cold. IT WAS AWESOME!!!! Best run I have had in a while. I was so loose, kept warm but not over heated. With it being dark, it was as if I was in my own world. I am so looking forward to a run at night with light snow, enjoying the Christmas lights as I pound the pavement.
Sunday I went for a 6 mile run. 68 degrees and sunny. Overall, very good run. My motivation songs were: Dr Dre "Nuthin but a G thang" and "Sober" by Pink. I have to laugh though because it is not out of the ordinary to see or experience something to make each run unique and memorable. The first 4 miles were nothing special. Then, as I am looking down at the sidewalk ahead of me, I notice green plastic. About every 10-15 ft was a green coffee creamer cup turned upside down. This went on for several blocks. I laughed out loud at the scenarios that were playing in my mind as to why and how these green things were placed. I won't bore you or reveal my immaturity with the scenarios. The coffee creamers stop and I come across a huge pile of vomit. I wasn't laughing anymore.
Monday I couldn't run due to a cold. I have been sick this fall more times than I ever have in my life. Not sure what the problem is.
Tuesday I ran despite my bronchitis. Probably not smart, but that wouldn't be the first time I did something dumb. The run was actually really good. Only went 2.5 miles and I took Tikka with me. I came home and did 20 minutes of P 90x. How embarrassing; I can't do a pull up. I did ok with the push ups but I have tons of work to do on the pull ups.
