a non-MJ-related post
yay for those of you that aren’t big MJ fans (which includes, as I’m finding out, a LOT more of you than I thought).
So I was so wrapped up with being upset about MJ *still* the other day when I ran that I totally didn’t blog about my awesome run. Yeah, I’ll go ahead and say that I was running for him, in my mind, because it kept me going. I used to listen to some of his stuff when I ran, but recently only have listened to heavy stuff when running. I can’t believe I could switch at the drop of a hat like that (in this case, the drop of a glittered black fedora hat).
Anyway, due to the fact I was running with purpose and that my mind was definitely elsewhere AND the fact that it was 20° cooler and not deathly humid out, I was able to complete my 45 minutes of running without stopping. Well — obviously I had to stop at intersections, but I don’t count that because that’s a life-or-death kind of situation. Not stopping=getting plowed by a vehicle.
So this is my longest non-stop run since physical therapy!
Also — I set out to do a JOG…not a run. I had Mexican for lunch (which is a terrible idea for someone with stomach issues, I know), so there was a fiesta going on in my tummy. I decided I should just risk it and go because it was so nice outside. Lo and behold, I didn’t have any issues. Crazy, right? Yeah. I know.
Oh and nikeplus.com has a new look/layout/functionality. Not a fan just yet. We’ll see if it grows on me. OH and apparently I’m “chimes1″ on nikeplus now … WTF??? I’m THE chimes.
