| Um, that strange line on my face that looks like sagging skin is actually a strand of hair. At first I thought my face was falling. Ah, gravity. |
This bat mama just might be going on a run after this trick or treating business going on! Garmin is on, stress ready to be released into the Halloween night, running shoes tied tight, and I'm already preparing to be running off the copious amounts of processed sugar that I will be consuming over the next few hours. Okay, I won't be indulging that much but the run will still feel nice.
Training
In my last post, I talked about increasing mileage, strength training, training plans for Boston and really knowing myself as a runner. I think the key here with me will be to really determine how I respond to an increase in mileage and I need to keep reminding myself to do this GRADUALLY. I get really excited about something and then that sometimes leads to obsessing about it and then that leads to getting unbalanced....and...well, you get the picture.
Balance.
Gradual increase.
Continued learning.
Listening to my body!
Figuring out what works for me.
Inspiring Woman Inspiring Women (IWIW)
I'm excited to see some of you get in on the IWIW action! This is a great way for all of us to find other blogs worth visiting and other women worth getting to know! I hope to get my IWIW #2 out soon. In the meantime, go check out the inspiring women that Lisa and Ashley write about!
Who will be "running off" some candy this week? Or do you have amazing will power to resist all the sugary sweets floating around this time of year? Having three kids makes it difficult to avoid the candy completely. Although I try really hard to provide my kids with healthy food choices daily, I do allow them to indulge in some treats! And this time of year, that's just part of the fun. A good lesson in moderation and balance!
