Well, I ran my final 5k for 2014. With my surgery I did miss one race because I was still feeling jut a bit sore.
My husband and I ran together. Well, we started together :) He did amazing. Really, for someone who doesn't work out and hasn't trained for running, he ran this race in 31:44. I however was not so lucky. This was my worst time ever. I ran in 36:00. Last year I ran in 35:17. That is a huge difference!
I did have to remind myself though that last summer I was running three times a week at 3 miles. This summer I was really struggling to stay motivated. I have maintained my training once a week, but my running really took a hit. It is my own fault and I really needed to put everything aside and go after it.
After having my IUD removed, I have to say I have been feeling amazing! I am not as "angry" as I was feeling. I just in general feel great! I really think it was messing with my body. I am so glad I had it removed. It is better for everyone :)
SO, the cooler weather is approaching and here I am. The same place I was last year although even more nervous. How will I do over the winter. Will I maintain, will I get more intense and try to lose the weight. I am able to go to the gym that I train at and use their equipment and treadmills. Ugghhhh treadmills :) Ellipticals are also there as well as the dreaded step mill....how I hate her, yet she works and makes you gross and sweaty!
So, this afternoon I am relaxing under a blanket and enjoying some quiet time before the rest of my day comes to an end. Thanks for reading, and I do hope to post again soon!
