Ready for the Weekend
I am so excited for this weekend to begin! Luckily for me it did kind of start around 1:30 today. I finished teaching the course at 1:00 and left by 1:30 because I didn't have anything else I really needed to do. I ellipticalled for 65 minutes this morning - a little harder than normal - but I really wanted to run. So as soon as I got home, I changed into running clothes. I needed to drop off rent at my old apartment so I decided to run down to Wash Park, run around it, and run back. It was about 90 degrees out so it felt really hot but I decided I should suck it up. The first 5.5 miles were nice and the last 2.5 somewhat resembled a death march but I kept going. My back didn't hurt at all so that was nice! By mile 6 I was really wishing I had brought money (which I almost did) to buy some water. When I got back, I sat on the couch for a while and couldn't believe how much I was sweating! It was truly revolting so I drank two bottles of water and got in the shower right away.
Tonight we have no plans which will actually be kind of nice, so we're going to hang out and pack for our trip to Vegas. Our flight's at 7:00 am tomorrow so we will be getting up very early - I am making a point of it to go to bed early so I feel okay in Vegas this time. I probably won't update again until Monday night or Tuesday morning. But I really hope that will not be due to lack of running!
I hope everyone has a fantastic long weekend!
