I fell off the wagon on Monday with the run challenge. I had the WHOLE day off, and I did nothing. It was amazing, no lie. I had grand plans of taking some time out to go for a long run. It didn't happen. I stayed parked on the couch with my hubby and we watched hours of Netflix. Hours and hours. Ha! Around 8 pm, I started feeling a little guilty. By this time it was dark and I was kinda bummed that I had "wasted" the whole day. However, I started to gear up - and it starts raining. Yeah...like I want to go out now! I start thinking of the dog down the street that keeps freaking me out. I worry that he's going to bite me. Ugh. His owners had another dog that bit me a year or so ago and they weren't so concerned/helpful. So, yeah...it wasn't but about 5 minutes and I was parked on the couch once again watching Netflix.
I "didn't have it in me" yesterday either. I had home group (bible study) after work and once I was home, I was "done." Ha. I totally could have gone for a run, but decided against it.
In saying all of this, as of tonight, I'm caught up! I went to the gym with my friend, Laci, and ran a very boring 3 miles on the treadmill without music (gasp)! My headphones weren't working! Surprisingly, it went by quickly...... :) Now I'm debating whether to finish the challenge as I had intended (1 mile per day for 30 days), or just get in 30 miles - no matter how it's broken down?
Decisions, decisions.
I say 30 no matter how
ReplyDeleteI always find it more difficult to do things when I have nothing on. There appears to be plenty of time... And then there's not. Tricky.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely finish your challenge.
I say the 30, but in whatever increments you can get in. Some days it just isn't possible to workout and you have to do what works for you.
ReplyDeleteI heart netflix.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with finishing up :D
1 mile a day is a great goal, but hey, 30 miles is 30 miles so do whatever works!
