I was supposed to get up this morning and run with the rest of the Run 2.0ers. In fact, I even said something like, “Two miles? I need to run more than that”.
Then I slept in.
I’m tired. Jet lagged. A little sick. All of which makes running a half-marathon in two weeks a bit daunting.
Last Saturday, I did the 45 minute Your Shape workout for stronger arms. And for some reason, Jenny had me doing squats and lunges. Sixty of them, to be exact. And by Sunday, I was SORE. Unfortunate timing, because Sunday was my longest run ever – 10 miles.
My parents came over to see the kids, so my husband decided to join me for the run. It was hard, but not impossible. I did it. And this week, I’m back down to nine miles. I think I’ll do those on Tuesday, and tomorrow, hit the gym here at the Four Seasons Houston for a few miles.
Just two weeks before the Princess half-marathon.
Disclosure: I am participating in a sponsored challenge for Your Shape.
