Short-Term Running Goals:

Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent.  Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me.  Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

Total Distance

Kind of a ridiculous run. I decided to torture myself a little and run up Falcon and down NC. But I got a side ache at the top of NC and it pretty much stayed with me the whole way home. It was really bugging me. I stopped a few times to stretch it out but as soon as I would start running again, it would come right back. Then my calf started hurting and my hip flexor. What the crap? Have I gained that much weight that my body is falling apart? Reality check. 

p.s. I haven't showered since Saturday.

Nice job running up Falcon! That IS torture. Very long and gradual hill. That's definitely steeper than Newcastle and willow hills. That sucks that you couldn't enjoy the downhill part of the run dang it!

What? It's not like you to go that long without showering is it? I have to say that I might have to start showering every day (even on days I don't run) now cause since I turned 40 I'm sweating more. Weird.

run tomorrow and you'll find that today's run got all the bad juju out of your system.

i shower at least once a day. sometimes more.

Stac, I usually shower every day. I hate the feeling of not showering. But I was watching the news last night when it dawned on me I didn't shower the whole day! Then I felt all hippie-ish and cool so I went to bed with no shower. I was going to put some patuli oil on me to really capture the mood but I was fresh out.

JD, I hope you're right. Maybe my hippie-ish feeling was giving off the bad juju vibe. I guess I needed some weed to fix it.
