Hi! How was your weekend? Mine was pretty nice. Saturday I started the day out with a run on the treadmill. At first I was not that excited to run on the treadmill but with the schedules we had that day I really had no other options. To be honest it turned out to be a very nice six miles. I felt really good and it was nice to just run. I turned on pandora and the first song that came on was an oldie but a goodie. It was Erasure: Take a chance on me. That started my mood out great. As I ran on the treadmill I was more like run/dancing. If only you could have seen my arm movements they were totally awesome. So all in all a great run on the treadmill.
This week is the 5K turkey stuffer. I have a time goal for this race. I have never run a 5K with a time goal in mind. The one's I have run I am usually just running for the fun of it. I have to be honest with a goal I am kinda nervous. My running hasn't been the greatest as of late but this has given me some motivation to keep going.
What about you are you running a turkey stuffer?
Also, this morning I read a great post by Dorothy over on mile post. I have been reading her blog for a while now and I really like her. She is an amazing runner who has an amazing story. Her post today was about dieting and food. I really like her thoughts about this and I feel the same. Check it out if you like.
My friends and I are running our own Turkey Trot! We plan on running around 4 miles and include a couple of big hills. I was able to run this morning and it felt good (I have a chest cold and cough, not fun) we totally dominated our big hill at the end of our run today. Glad your back in the running, and I can totally see the hand gestures while you run. HA!
