Let's Dish
Ok- yesterday I was terribly crabby.
This is NOT a drill people.
There are lots of cures for crabbiness.
ice-cream comes to mind.
But I went for a 'run' instead.
Well, not really a RUN, 'kite surfing' is what I picked Endomondo to post-
I was going to try on some interval training for size, and kite surfing seemed to fit the bill-
Plus it made me smile, and THAT my friend, is an accomplishment.
Sick of having pain.
Sick of being slow.
Sick of reading about running-
I just want to get out there and do it-
And do it NOW-
Then read some more.
My reading of late is centered around running form.
I've been watching all sorts of YouTube videos on proper form. Seems, the one thing (among many) I forget, is that little lean forward.
I tried it last night.
An ever-so-slight lean.
It helped.
Intervals went well too.
Running faster felt so much better, smoother than my normal woggy jog tempo.
But I find I loose my breath faster than my legs tire of it.
I guess that's why it's called interval training.
Pain is back in my left calf.
I really do need to adress it- just trying to figure out where and when.
Don't think it's major, it doesn't tell me to stop... just has been lingering for over 3 weeks now.
I was so proud of myself tonight,
I worked first---
Telling myself I'd double back for this great architectual photo op I'd seen at the beginning of my run.
But as I was working a speed drill, checking my time on my phone
(I had just picked up my replacement iPhone a few hours before my run-yay!)
I dropped that silly thing-
It blacked out-
I really, really, really need a Garmin-
Any favorites on this front?
I trudged home--- hoping Ryan wasn't texting or calling- knew it had to be at least 10:30pm by now.
He wasn't-
He was lost in a sea of numbers and letters-
Fluid Mechanics
Design Optimization
I plugged my phone into it's jack-
Little apple lights up....
I grab a bowl of ice-cream anyway.
It's been that kind of day.
ps,
Today is sooo much better, might even 'kayak' my endomondo self out tonight to snap that pic!
