Mileage Log: December 5-11, 2011

I am thoroughly loving this down time.  Sleeping in on Saturday, not wearing my Garmin, just getting in miles but not worrying about how fast or slow they are, drinking wine, celebrating the holidays and spending time with my bffs:)

Last week I fell in love again with running.  It’s not that I wasn’t enjoying it, but I seem to be loving it even more than usual if that’s even possible! The thing is though, I kept apologizing for it and saying things like, “I know this is weird but…” or, “this seems so silly to say…” Until a friend stopped me in my tracks and said, “Why are you putting yourself down like that? That’s not how a winner talks, you’re so much better than that.” He was right.  So in the spirit of Buddy the Elf, “I’M IN LOVE AND I DON’T CARE WHO KNOWS IT!” Let’s go for a chilly outdoor winter run!!

  • Run 9 miles at 7:49/mile
