Today I needed to run 9 miles. And I did it. I did intervals of 3:1 (3 min running, and 1 min walking) and did pretty good. I had set a goal for myself of 1:55:00. I didn't make it, but I did do it in 1:56:51! Which I was pretty happy with!!
It was so hot and humid by the time I was done, but overall, I didn't feel TOO bad. I really tried to keep up with my intervals and not walk more than what I had set for myself. Granted, near the end, my running was barely a run, and was super slow, but I still did it. I did get up to 6 mph again for a little bit near home - I just wanted to be done!
I'm feeling good, and am happy. I have a great husband who I love, who rode his bike for 9 slooooooow miles in this heat and humidity to keep me hydrated. I would have died without him!
I hope to really get back on track with my eating and keeping track of my calories. I've not been doing a good job of it lately, and hope to change that today.
I feel blessed that I can do this, and have a supportive person in my life to keep me going. There aren't many people out there who can say that, and I feel lucky that I can.
I love running, my life, my husband, the little family that we've created together, my family, our little home, mt biking, just pretty much everything.
