Just haven't felt up to it lately. It's been a difficult week. Been out of sorts. Struggling just to feel normal, but it's coming. I can feel it.
Kept very, very busy over the weekend. Saturday morning, we ran a local 5K, and had a great time and a good pace at under 10:00 minute mile. In fact, the first mile, we were under 9:00 minute mile. Aimee, my running partner, got first place in her age group. We're running a turkey trot together on Thanksgiving Day, and I know of at least one, maybe two 5K's I want to do in December.
After the 5K, spent the afternoon with family celebrating a birthday party, and then Saturday night was the Township bonfire. Sunday morning, up and out early, for another run. We ran just over 6 miles. It was another beautiful fall morning. By Sunday the time I headed to my sister's for football and dinner, it all hit me. I was exhausted. Had a hard time keeping my eyes open.
I wanted to get out for a run today, but just couldn't pull myself together enough. Took the dog to the park and called it a day. So hope to get out on Thursday for a decent run.
In the meantime, I'm counting points, eating healthy, working on stitching projects, and reading posts while I ponder what's next on the agenda for me.

Thanks, Jen. Hope all went well with you today.
ReplyDeleteAnd Rick, thank you so much, and welcome back! I noticed yesterday that you're back on track. That's awesome! Haven't had a chance to comment on your blog yet, but Yeah for You!
You are doing such an awesome job. Look at all your runs WOW! 6 miles is a fantastic run.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear about your cat, I know how hard it can be to lose a pet and you still found the strength to keep it together and not just eat, eat and eat to cover up your feelings - that is a tremendous effort on your part, well done Reen :)
