That said, I did have a minor hiccup or two in the training today. A few forces of nature combined to make the planned 3.5 mile run just a little too difficult for me.
This is what spring looks like at my house |
I couldn't see a thing and running was becoming hazardous. Not only would it be difficult to see bumps in the road, but cars as well. The snow covered the sidewalks so I ran in the road, something I don't like to do anyway and now my life was even more at risk. Or at least, that's what I told myself when I decided to call it a day. By the end of the run, I traveled roughly 2 miles. This is what I do on a weekday, so I felt somewhat satisfied. Just a quick peek of what I looked like after mother nature had her laugh at me.
Looks like I'm covered with sweat, right? Wrong, it's just the "Spring" weather getting to me. |
Side note: I got to meet Deni from this season of Biggest Loser. She looks amazing and seems to be just as sweet in person. I'm still kicking myself for not getting a picture but since I just randomly ran into her I didn't want to take too much of her time.
