Going the Distance

Okay, maybe that's a bit dramatic for a post title about  4 miles, but it is my longest distance since the 18 Mile Tune Up disaster in September.  I apologize if you are sick of hearing about that, but it was an experience that has been difficult to get past.  So, when Ray said that I should run 4 miles this morning at a 1-2 incline, I was a bit hesitant.  And then, at 3:30 a.m. when the fire trucks and the ambulance woke me up while assisting people who live around the corner from me, my 5 a.m. start was not looking good.

However, I woke up.  And I was in a great mood.

Before run

I did my push ups and ran my mileage, slow (5.8-6.0) and steady (1.5 incline.)

And then I was done.

After - Sweatier and happier (despite the sarcastic smile)

More push ups and off to start my day.

Side notes:

Even my Phoebe didn't want to go to the gym.  

See the resemblance :)

And the best news of the day...

Don't worry about the rest of the article. ;)

With that, have a good day. Xoxox
