I am loving exercise this week. Started lifting again this week and boy did my legs remind me of that. However, I am kind of crazy and I like waking up the next morning to sore muscles. It reminds me that I worked hard the day before and I know if I get up and get moving those aches will slowly go away. I have been trying the P90X workouts and I kind of like them. The dude reminds me of a Ken barbie doll with his plastic hair and all but the leg workout it great. I especially like it because he does a lot of single leg squats and this is great for runners because we are in single leg stance a lot. I went for a run yesterday morning and again had no agenda. It was still dark outside but so quiet and peaceful. As I ran the first mile warmed up my sore legs and I was able to tackle a small hill. I kept running and noticed a runner ahead of me in all black. I thought is this woman crazy it's dark out here and she is in all black. I had to catch this person it became my challenge for the morning. I did catch her and it was my friend from church, Lynne. She is seriously the sweetest lady you have ever met. Her pace is slower than mine but I ran with her anyway and loved every minute. She is so up lifting and positive that you can't help but feel good after talking with Lynne. We left each other at mile 3 1/2 and I picked up my pace to make it home. I felt AWESOME. I wanted to run more but had to get home so my hubby could get ready for work.
I love no agenda but I really love positive people and running with them. That has to be the best combo ever how can you not have a runners high after those two things.
Hope you have a runners high today.
