I wasn't feelin' the run today. I had planned atleast a few miles. But, when I got up and saw the clouds in the sky, I knew I didn't want to venture out in that. Then my sis got up and went out for her walk and I knew I had to do it! I am supposed to be a role-model, right?
So, I saddled up and headed out. Sure enough it was sprinkling before I even left the driveway. I almost turned around deciding to bag the run. It wasn't the rain, necessarily, that I was afraid of. I could handle a few sprinkles or getting a bit wet. It was the thought of lightening. Like I said before, our neighbor's yard got struck by lightning a week ago.... just out of the blue. It wasn't even raining then!
So, I hauled a** and pushed myself hard for what I was hoping was atleast a mile. Done. Tomorrow I hope to conquer another long run. Last week, I did my long run wednesday, but I am pushing it up this week (I think), since I won't be able to run saturday and sunday. Yippee!
These rainy days make me want to bake. ... .. hmm.
Distance: 1.47 miles
Duration: 14:37
Temp: 70 degrees
Humidity: 81% (eeks)
Avg Pace: 9:56 (wahoo!)
Avg HR: 173
Max HR: 180
I saw on Marcy's blog the Cadaver Calculator... where you figure out how much your body is worth. ... and just had to give it a try. $3,555. That's it! Kind of disappointing. I am sure it has to do with the amount of soda I drink, my height (or lack there of), and the amount of ibuprofen I take. )
P.S. Is anyone else not able to get to javamom's blog? Or is that just me?

Javamom or BFKAJM has moved. See if you can pick out the new one in the bloglist on my site. Hint... It still has SOMETHING to do with coffee :-)

Good job! Averaged under 10:00 too. YAY

I'm right there with ya sister -I wasn't worth much either ;-) Haha
my body was worth about that much...i'm chalking it up to my beer-laden liver and my extreme shortness.
Hey! I just saw this! Sorry I missed you! I had a hormonal crisis and moved my blog. Thought I was going on decaf and then went back on the caff. SIGH!!!!!
