First, can I just say, I think I get sick more than anyone else I know! Seriously… I’ve been sick since Saturday! Runny nose, sore throat, coughing, sneezing… I think I pulled a chest muscle!
Well, I got up extra early today… didn’t help that we were having some severe storms all night… I don’t think I ever fully fell asleep… anyways… I ran 5 miles this morning… on the dreadmill of course because it was pouring and cold outside.
Here are my thoughts from my run:
~ Man, I’m feeling good… I thought my legs would be dead after running a “fast” 3miles
only 8 hours ago!
~ Seriously?! I’m only 1.3 miles in!! Ugh! Guess I’ll have to stop and go take care of
business… gross…
~ There is NO way I am ready for my half marathon on May 7th
~ I hope I’m ready for my first exam today… I better cut this run short and go study!
~ You are NOT cutting this run short! You have plenty of time afterwards!
~ Hmm… I think my blog has become boring… perhaps I’ve lost my blogging mojo or
whatever…
~ I’m not as witty as I was when I first started blogging (mental apology to all my bloggy
friends)
~ You can do this! Only 2.5 more! So not ready for my half marathon…
~ Can’t it just be nice outside? I’m tired of the rain!
~ Stop complaining already! You have nothing to complain about! Have some fun!
~ Man… an ice bath sounds so good!
~ What?! 800 meters left? Pick up the pace!!
~ Finished!! Yay!! oh no… please don’t puke, please don’t puke…. BDD would probably
appreciate this thought… now coughing too?! That’d be weird if I literally hacked up
a lung!… ew…
There ya have it… I’m a strange one… Don’t pretend like you have no clue what I’m talking about lol… You know i’m weird ;) After my run I hopped in the ice bath for about 15 minutes and then took a quick shower and ate breakfast and now i’m taking a break from studying… I have my first exam today… My last exam was last June before I graduated with my first degree… hopefully I’m not rusty! ;)
I will leave you with my “this is cold, but feels good, I’m gonna try to be cool like Janae and make weird faces” ice bath picture:
And yes… I drink Chocolate Milk straight out of the jug
after my runs cuz i’m just cool like that ;)
66 Days Left!
Your arguments with yourself about stopping sound very familiar to me - I pretty much had the same conversation with myself yesterday :)
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon!

Girl - you CRACK.ME.UP - though, I'm VERY sorry to hear you're sick. Here's the thing . . . I was tracking with your mental thoughts until the 3rd to last one - then I knew you had LOST YOUR MIND! Seriously - "oh an ice bath sounds good" - under what circumstance can you actually think it sounds good???? I'm sure it helps, but to actually think about looking forward to it - GGGUUUURRRRLLLLLL!!!!! I dunno 'bout you!
ReplyDeleteFeel better - you'll be fine at your half (though I think I forgot you were doing one - I'm such a bad bloggy follower - have you talked much about it?)
Hope your day gets better - good luck on the test!
LOL and I was thinking, I hope she puked, I hope she puked, you know you want the convented Pukie Award
ReplyDeletelove the dialogue between u and u. lol
ReplyDeletei also have such random thoughts when i run. i should do a post on that too.
good luck on ur exam
Love this ~ very cute:) I too am a bad blogger that has lost my blogging mojo :/ hope we each find it! You will do great at your half!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love reading your blog! Your half will be great!
ReplyDeleteBrrr! I do the milk jug thing too--you've got company!
ReplyDeleteMMmmmmm....chocolate milk :)
ReplyDeleteIm with you!! I want some sun! I want it to be spring weather!!!! Ive been battling sinus issue and it is not fun to sneeze for about an hour post run!... I would love to tape record my running thoughts I think it would be hilarious or ..... maybe depressing later on! lol Feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI have this annoying "no chocolate" thing. If I didn't? I'd drink chocolate milk right out of the jug, too. Heck I'd probably drink the whole jug at one sitting!
ReplyDeleteMy mind goes all over when I run, too. In one run alone I'll think I'm the greatest, then the suckiest, then finish thinking again I am in contention for being in the Olympics!
Oh yeah, guilty as charged... I do drink straight out of the milk jug. ;)
