Monday, Monday

I noticed i had a few new followers - welcome! :) In the process of reading your blogs, too!


So, let's talk about the long run this weekend that wasn't. My running mojo basically took a vacation for the weekend & forgot to tell me. (I even tried to read my Runner's World magazine for some motivation, but that didn't work.)

I decided yesterday - since my trusty iPhone told me it was only going to be a high of 67 - that i would run to Game Stop (where i had preordered Donkey Kong) and run back. Around 4-5 miles.

Well so much for the iPhone being accurate - it was freaking warm out at 10:15!! I could honestly feel the heat radiating off my black Nike capris.

Basically i shuffled and wheezed my way 2.5 miles to the store, Tom met me there, we got Donkey Kong, and i rode back in the car with him.

Fail.

But Donkey Kong was/is fun!!

Reasons you should read my blog: I make you feel better about your running - because I'm sure everyone did waaaay better than i did this weekend!

At least you got your butt out there! That way you got a run *and* some Donkey Kong. Woot!

Talk about squeezing in a run.
Yay for Donkey Kong. You definitely got your priorities right. :)
