Info

My knee still hurts today. I didn't run. Maybe tomorrow?

Went to the library to check out some books on running. M said I should just make copies of any info I really want. lol good idea. If any are really good, I might buy them. We'll see...

2 miles again

Ran 2 miles today. Walked 3/10ths of a mile to warm up then ran 2 miles on Main and campus. Walked another 3/10ths of a mile to cool down. Sooo cold tonight. But M got me a nice running jacket from UnderArmour. It is so awesome. I had on a thin t-shirt underneath and was totally warm. My face was in so much pain at first from the wind though. But after a while I was fine. My legs hurt some today. I thought I would ice my left calf and my right hip when I got home. But after stretching at home, I ended up icing my right knee and hip.

The temp was about 27, feeling like 17... pretty awesome. As always, it felt good to run. Hopefully I can keep this up.

Because classes are over, it's so quiet around town and campus. I liked it. It was nice to just be out there by myself. I don't remember what I really thought about. Most of the time I thought about what I would write in my blog haha. And a lot about actually being out there. Getting back into it and as usual, I'm always excited when I'm able to push thru my pain and keep running.

lazy

i'm so lazy. i haven't run since last weds.

next week (after my grad ceremony this weekend! ... and after everyone leaves me for break :-P) i am def getting back on track. i swear.

looking forward to christmas when i get (hopefully) and ipod, watch, running clothes or gift cards for that... yay!

supposed to run today; might not... although it is very warm today. Ugh, we'll see. I'm just tired a lot lately.
Should def do something tomorrow

"You're just way more intense than everyone else"

Tuesday: went to the gym by myself. Ran 1 mile around the track. Didnt have a watch, not sure of the time. Was going to do one of the stationary bikes for a bit but they were all being used when I was done.

Wednesday: actually ran outside. Bundled up and took my phone since it's dark. It was cold, windy, and kind of doing that frozen rain thing. Asked M if I'd be the only one running. He said yes. Asked if I would look stupid. He said I was just way more intense than everyone else. I bought into that.

Run was not that bad. Not sure of the exact distance but I think definitely close to two miles. Actually got hot while running. Survived being in the cold, not so bad. Could do it again.

Today: rest day. Need it. Have big event at work tonight (which I hate). Will probably work 11 hours today. Awesome

Tomorrow: cross-train. Elliptical? Maybe M will teach me how to erg. I'll have to pretend to be K to get into the gym tomorrow. Also need to go look at membership fees of local gyms...

back in the game!

I went running last night!! YAAAAAAY!!!

J and I went to the gym and ran 2 miles on the indoor track. My new shoes felt good, I felt good. No shin splints. I was so happy. And it felt good. Really good. I'm pumped to go back to the gym tonight.

I think I will have to get a gym membership somewhere because I'm currently using my friend K's pass to get into the campus gyms. I can't do that everyday.

Super excited to be running again. Love it!
