This week has been more miss than hit. Really didn't do anything on Monday or Tuesday and then last night I did Jillian Michaels' 30-Day Shred (level 1). That was a good twenty minutes of sweating. The moves themselves were relatively easy, but doing anything that active for twenty solid minutes is good for the body.
And soul.
Honestly, I really didn't want to work out. I've struggling food-wise this week and just haven't had the motivation to work. I had that dumb run on Sunday morning and it's kind of hung around. Have to put it behind me.
So, this morning I went out early and ran about a mile and a half. It was ok; I mean, at least I got out there. But, I wanted to run 5k. I knew I'd be dead if I did it, so I cut it off and just finished strong. I guess that's better than nothing. Though, now I won't run again until Sunday morning when I'm supposed to run 5 or 6 miles. I mean, I know I can do it, I just need to prepare well over the next couple days.
I suppose this is kind of a fork in the road. Pathetic that it's so early. I need to decide if I'm actually in for the next two months...or not. If I am, I need to be more dedicated. More disciplined. More excited, honestly. I was just thinking about that on the way home from work. "You gotta have some FUN, dude." And that's true. I gotta think of some fun things to do on my runs. Otherwise it's just going to be drudgery.
So...in conclusion...I am in this. Therefore, my actions must align with this decision.
I wonder how many piles of animal poop I can count on my next run? Does bird poop count?
