August 21, 2012

I did everything for my set-up yesterday except the running.

Today?  Everything.  And you know what?  I didn't have to GO! Again!  And? I was brave and ran not near my house.  I ran the trails at the Native Plant Center which includes HILLS that I RAN up.  I even ran up the last one out of the park.  You know the one I'm talking about, right, Baby T-rex? (Or are you Baby Dino?)

Two things got me up the hills.  #1. The Beastie Boys.  #2. Being goofy.  I figured if I had to run up those damn hills I might as well have fun.  So I made my arms go like a chew-chew train.  You know all straight out at the elbow with my hands wide open and just....chugged my way up.  It made me laugh.  Which was even better.

I did 40 minutes and managed 2 miles again.  I'm trying really hard to not be self deprecating about that.   I went a lot faster that I did NOT running yesterday.  And I can feel the emergency need to poo anxiety diminish....albeit very slowly.

  1. I am Baby T-Rex due to my tiny arms! Love the train idea for going uphill. Genius! I'm going to have to try that.
