I feel like the hours I spend outside of work pass in mere seconds. Anyway, motivated by the mini snickers and rolos I snacked on during a long meeting and you know... the shame of not doing anything... I kept the streak alive.
Yep, ONE MILE that was barely sub 10 busted out to the first three tracks of this album that has pretty much been on repeat since Friday...
At first I was kind of like BOO one mile on day two is weaksauce, but I think I was missing the purpose of the Run Streak. So, let me lay some purpose on ya. Without the streak, I would have read on my couch for at least another hour and then retired to bed ending the day without any physical activity. BOO. Instead, inspired by the streaking, I got off my ass at 10:40pm and busted out a mile in my basement. I took 10 minutes to be more focused on health. Don't focus on the distance, it is the time and the effort we are putting on being healthy and happy that makes the Streak so fabulous.
Oh and last things last...
Yep.
There it is.
xo,

Nice! Well done on the streak my friend.
ReplyDeleteI tend to have the same problem with books. Then I drag through work the next day. Ugh.
Good job you dirty streaker! :)
ReplyDeleteIt would have taken some serious motivation for me to leave at good book after 10pm and go for a run. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteyes! love it! i agree with Vanessa again...she says some great things;) pretty much after 8pm im in the "will likely go to sleep at any moment" zone. so that you remembered and were motivated to get that mile in...LOVE IT!
ReplyDeletehave i mentioned how much you rock lately? you rock hard.
ReplyDeleteaww thanks, pp!
DeleteGood for you for getting your run on that late!
ReplyDeleteGreat job getting off the couch and busting out a mile, at that hour I was sleeping. Keep up the awesomeness!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I am considering jumping on the Run Streak train...Considering it...
ReplyDeleteDO IT! It doesn't have to be running, just anything to get your buns moving!
DeleteWell, Im on day too and have 3/4 of a mile done from my morning workout...Better hit the mill soon. I still have Harry Potter- Goblet in the dvd from a month ago! AND i'm like 14 pounds behind you. We can do it!
ReplyDeleteLet's git r done!
DeleteI have only run two times after 8pm - both times were races and obviously I will be running at all hours of the day for Ragnar . . . but never would I just run at 10:30pm . . . you go girl! Way to do it . . . even when you didn't quite feel like it! ;-)
