The day after

-
I shouldn't be blogging about this. 
I'm hoping it doesn't jinx me
But hubs and I have started back at the working out thing. 

We just came back from Cali
And isnt' there something about California that gets your mind thinking---
Maybe it's the sun the sand and the waves. I don't  know- 
but here we are, driving back that long trek back from Cali to New Mexico, 
and we're chatting about being more consistent with our health goals.
 
Now mind you, hubs has no trouble with consistency and discipline and all that jazz
It's me...I'm such a goooooooood snoozer in the mornings 
I mean deep restful restorative things are happening at 4:45 in the morning. 
And that's when we need to be getting up and working out.

I'm thinking this is why some of that beauty is missing in my sleep.... hmmmmmmm

Isn't it the absolute funniest thing to see someone working out on their day 1?!?!
(Insert laughing/crying emoji) 

That was us

We were in it to win it! 
The workout was great
Harder than i thought it would be

But let's be honest, you don't merely take time off and come back from it unscathed

So fast forward to today

Yeahhhhhhhhhh- it's a yoga day
And I only made it through half.... 
So so funny- but it feels good to feel sore

Chat with me!!!!!
What did you do yesterday, and what did you follow it up with today?!?!?!

Saturday, October 1st, 2011 I ran my 13.1 The night before, the excitement was almost unbearable. Sick to my stomach excited. Pep talking my way through the course in my mind, I wandered through my day almost in a fog. But this morning, I was calm. No emotion. This has happened to me before, and last time flat scared me. It didn't scare me this time, though, just a feeling of nothingness. I ate granola, drank a small Gatorade, water. I stuffed my pockets with fruit snacks, baby juice box in my compression shirt. Two more juice boxes would be stashed along the first leg of my run to find at the end. warm up walk out the neighborhood- It is 5:35- It is dark. All week long I'd mulled over a route for this run. Then yesterday night I realized I wasn't planning for the dark... I was in denial. I even googled the sunrise, and found the sun wouldn't even begin to show it's face 'til after 6:30, with an official rise after 7. College and High s

Its happening... you can feel it in the air  You can see it in the way the sun hits the grasses on the side of the road Hear it when you open your door and the kids are outside playing It's running weather... I know you feel it too.  That feeling that you get when you have to lace up and get out It's been a while though A long while...  Hesitation sets in, you second guess You tell yourself it's probably nothing Probably procrastination from some more pressing projects on your plate. But I can't shake it... So I ran.  and walked.  and ran some more... and took a few pics to commemorate the beginning of the season.  Running Season.

Go ahead and giggle—- I did. So here’s a rundown... Because I know you’re curious It’s hot Really hot I forgot how odd the first few runs are You have all the confidence in the world But none of the staying power Everything’s moving Everything It feels weird So you stop Catch your breath Start back up Only this time your earbud falls out So you stop Catch your breath Start back up But the shirt you picked has sleeves And it’s sunny Super sunny You worry about a farmer tan So you stop  Catch your breath... And on it goes Wow, this running stuff is not what I remembered Do you ever feel that way? Overwhelmed because things aren’t going how you thought they would? You paralyze yourself thinking about what s
