Yesterday morning I was convinced that between my taco Tuesday hangover and just feeling fat and lazy, my ambitious plans to go to the gym that evening were canned.
Well, the hangover was gone by the afternoon, still felt fat and lazy by the evening, but that was really even more reason to get my round butt to the gym. My bff and I were going to go to a yoga class after hitting up the treadmills (in preparation for our 5k in April), but we opted just to run last night.
I wanted to run 2 miles straight, but considering everything aforementioned, I didn't know if 2miles was really going to happen. (Did I mention my boyfriend and I had pizza for dinner right before going to the gym? I know, genius.)
Well I managed to push through the side cramp and the stomach ache (thank you pizza) and run 2 miles (straight!). I was even more impressed with my 21 minute completion time: a 10:30 mile pace. I'm no speedy runner, but I don't think a 10:30 mile is too shabby. I'd like to get it under 10 minutes, but that will come with time.
After writing my bad.Bad.BAD entry, I certainly feel better having stuck to my gym goal for the day and stay on track with my 5k training.
Maybe not such a BAD day after all :)
