Suck It Up, Buttercup Virtual 5k

DONE!!!

John came home from Jenna's game about 7:30. I asked if I could get out and run.

He said, "The roads are covered and the subdivision is pretty slippery."

I said, "Just 3 miles?"

He said, "I wouldn't advise it."

GROAN.

Checked the radar...not TOO bad.

Poked my head out the front door...pretty quiet out there.

Walked into the living room, and he said, "You're running, aren't you?"

I thought to myself, "It IS called 'SUCK IT UP, BUTTERCUP!'" and I smiled and ran upstairs to grab my gear and change.

Not fast, but I can't remember a run feeling better.




SMILING!

3.1 miles. 35:09. Splits = 11:04, 11:39, 11:24, 10:07.

    Way to get out there and do it! Sometimes, those are the ones are the best, because they make you feel tough! Actually, you are tough. I would've died a .2 into it.

    Good for you! I have a super hard time running at night. All I want to do is take a bubble bath then go to bed. I bet your glad you did it.
