July 20 Plan: 4k steady Actual: 4.2k steadyish
Man, I'm tired today. Slept in as I said I would but was still out of bed by 7:30. 7 frickin 30. In what universe is that sleeping in??? Mine. Sad but true.
Was still raining so I knew there was no point in heading out to do my 4k right away. So I hung out in my jammies, had a cup of coffee and some homemade blueberry pancakes, and chatted with hubby about the merits of getting ourselves a new camera prior to our trip south in just under two weeks.
Finally pulled myself together, had a shower, then we left to do some in store browsing which, of course, turned into a purchase. On the way home we stopped and since it was National Ice Cream Day I grabbed some Baskin Robbins ice cream.
Now, I don't eat ice cream generally speaking. I go to Menchie's for froyo every once in a while but real ice cream? Almost never. So yeah, this was one hell of a sweet treat. So sweet that it was almost overwhelming! But thankfully I only got a small serving and was able to enjoy every last bit. Which made my run that much more important - all them calories weren't going to burn themselves! Well yeah, they would, eventually, but still.
I really really really really didn't want to go. I was tired and comfy, sitting right here on my couch. I didn't feel like getting dressed to run, let alone running itself. But I hauled my ass upstairs, put my shit on (including my new Moving Comfort bra, which I now adore!!), and got outside.
Hells bells it was steamy! Still overcast so no sun to speak of but man, I was dripping like never before when I got home, after only 4k! I felt like I was completely overheating so I peeled everything off and hopped right into a cold shower. Bliss I tell you, pure, unadulterated bliss!
Pretty uneventful otherwise. A hot, steamy short run to round out the week. Rest day tomorrow, then an early morning run Tuesday since it's going to be insanely warm. Until Tuesday!
