What a (negative) difference no running during the weekend makes. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n
I didn’t do my 18-mile run on Saturday because of the self-defence class that was practically the entire day. And I didn’t know what I was thinking when I thought I could run on Sunday (was too sore!) and then was still<\/em> feeling the after-effects of\u00a0the class on Monday (hey, so I got in three [controlled] fights on Saturday! It really took a toll on my body!)<\/p>\n Anyway, after all that, I guess my body was reverting back to its lazy self, especially when it has not run in three days!\u00a0Eek.<\/p>\n I already felt sluggish the entire day and nearly didn’t feel like going out for my run but my virtual training bestie, Sheryl<\/a>, did her “work” with motivating me to just get going. When I finally got to the park, it didn’t help that my Garmin wouldn’t find any satellites and only did, nearly a mile into running. UGH.<\/p>\n I’m glad I kept going, though, and completed my run because I feel better now. In fact, I’m kinda wired that I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep in a while. ROFL. You win some, you lose some (sleep!)<\/p>\n Stats (as recorded by Garmin Forerunner 201<\/a> and Forerunner 50<\/a> [HR only])<\/p>\n Time: \t00:50:28 What a (negative) difference no running during the weekend makes. \ud83d\ude41
