wake up: 5:45am
goal: 7 mile run
location: grant's trail
outcome: poor time, but got 'er done.
after snow and ice have botched every tempo run i've tried to do outside, i thought i'd enjoy the nice day the Lord provided and get out on the trail and run this morning. it was a match up that left one to wonder who the victor was as i severely misjudged how much it would warm-up and also had a hard time pushing the tempo as i was getting so used to a treadmill.
needless to say, i returned home cold and sore -- but happy that i'd at least managed to get my lazy butt out of bed early for once. another plus: since i'd gotten all nasty sweaty, the required shower allowed me an excuse to come to work half-way decent looking for once -- hair done AND some makeup! (i mean really -- research lab is not exactly the place for models...)
i will sleep good tonight!
