How long is a tenth of a mile?!


Tonight I put in another 3.1. Workout description: hard.  As soon as that treadmill reached 4.7 speed I was in trouble. Only 30 seconds in and my knees felt stiff, my shins burned, and my calves felt heavy. I was already defeated. But then i remembered runner friends like HRG that hasn't run because of injury. Or the people on the east coast that can't think of anything but survival; for them giving up because of physical exhaustion is not an option. My weakness is nothing, and i can overcome it. I finished, just shy of 38 minutes. Slow but complete.

When I got home I found this:

The hubs knows I'm on a no caffeine spell right now, and he also knows I'm super cheap and won't give into the high price of decaf coffee. So he bought some for me. Awwww.






Then it was on to dinner. I was in the mood for something simple. Eggs always win. Tonight, eggs with mushrooms, red onions, garlic, fresh basil, a lttle cheddar cheese, and yummy avacado. The hubs tried it, and liked it so much, he asked for his own plate of it. Score!

Time for a shower and off to bed.


What did you do tonight?

I love that you think of the trials of others compared to your own life. We should all think of others as that much.
