I was reminded this morning, while trying to run, that "Girls Just Want to Have Fun!" but I wasn't having fun! I wasn't having any fun at all! Today was really hard. Actually, this week has been really hard! My runs have not been easy - not that I am expecting them to be easy, but I would love for them not to make me doubt that I can ever be a runner. Yes, I know... If it was easy, it would be called your mama. Um... I mean... If it was easy, everyone would be a runner.
I wasn't able to complete the running portions of today's training plan. I did some of the running portions, but gave in to the need to walk more than half the time that I was supposed to be running. It was a beautiful morning, though. I met a new neighbor who was also out for a walk and learned some new things about the neighborhood, namely that the elementary school is likely to be closed. They will no for sure next week. I didn't go there, but did go to many Halloween parties and other activities there with people who did, so it makes me sad.
It was almost 60ยบ and sunny, as you can see. I have the day ahead of me and plan to do some yard work (I already stacked some firewood) then we are cooking out with family for the first time this year. This evening, more time with family around a small campfire (the reason for the firewood).
So, even though my run didn't go the way I would have like, I'm looking forward to a great spring day and I'll think on whether I should repeat this week of my training plan, or just try to move forward.
