i ran!!!
but not like this
josh wouldn't even come with me because he was embarrassed of my "new" nike capris (purchased in december, never worn due to lack of exercise).
unlike the last time i "ran" (a whopping half-mile in january), i didn't over think it before hand. in fact, i forgot to warm up and just took off (well, relatively speaking). i set off on a 2.5-mile loop and decided to do a 1-mile "time trial" and run/walk the rest of the way (2 minutes run/3 minutes walk). the 1-mile time trial was hard. then again, i haven't ran a full mile since october so it was to be expected.
by the numbers:
0 - horn honks at my hot pink pants
2.5 - miles run/walked total
10:29 - mile time trial
30:33 - total time to complete 2.5 miles
infinite - people rubber necking at my hot pink pants
ps: still sugar-free. i didn't give in on national m&m day. as much as i wanted to, i also didn't want to break my streak.
pps: i'm still not better. i'm just medicated. but, it enables me to run. and function in life in general.
Yay for the run! And, no honks for the hot pink pants?
ReplyDeleteI tensed up a few times expecting to be honked at, but I was glad no one did. Honks make me jump!
DeleteI was going to say the same thing about no honks... but I'm right there with you, honks make me jump! (Those pants are amazing!) Glad you got out there for a run!
Deletewoo hoo!
ReplyDeleteIf meds are allowing you to run - and life function - then bring them on!!! This post is going to make my whole day. Probably week!
ReplyDeleteHope you were able to walk okay today :).
My legs - namely quads and shins - are sore!! So sad...
DeleteYay for being able to run! So happy to see this post, it has made my day and I will probably think about you on my run this afternoon, hehe. Lovin' the hot pink pants!
ReplyDeleteThanks AL for sharing in my excitement. I hope you have a good run too!
DeleteOk LOVE the hot pink pants!! Wish I had the legs to pull them off!!! Congrats on meds that let you run!!!!

ReplyDeleteOH HAPPY DAY!!!!!!!!!!! I'm soooooooooo happy that you were able to go run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, those pants, hideous! Tell Josh I wouldn't have gone running with you either. LOL! J/K
Whoop whoop! So happy for you! And those pants are AWESOME!!!!!

ReplyDeleteI CAN NOT BELIEVE no one honked at your pink pants! So happy you got to finally take them for a run :)

ReplyDeleteZero honks, but how many accidents did the cotton candy zebra pants cause? Welcome back to running.
ReplyDeleteYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! SO happy for you chica. And I LOVE those pants. The more obnoxious the better. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's what I think! Obnoxious running clothes are safer - more visibility... Right?
Deletelol on the pants, doesn't surprise me that people were rubber necking! nice run!
ReplyDeleteLindsay, I am so proud of you for getting out there and running woohooo! Doesn't matter how far/long/fast, it just is great that you did it. Hooray for medications that make it possible for your body to tolerate this sort of thing, hope you feel back to normal asap!
