Recovery

Unfortunately for me, I'm recovering from a really annoying day instead of a good run.

I ran to the place where I was supposed to have my workout tonight, so I got 1.5 miles.  The workout didn't happen.  But I didn't run home because I rode home in the car with Keith.  Yeah, Keith drove to the workout, but I ran.  I need a husband who runs!  Ugh.

And the dinner that I cooked from a Crock Pot cook book was, to put it bluntly, disgusting. Ugh.

Plus, I had a raging headache most of the day because Cicero drives me insane and I haven't been on a run since Saturday.

The week's workouts so far:
Sunday - 1 hour yoga
Monday - 40 minutes of Insanity
Today - 1.5 mile run (at freaking warm up pace)

The only thing that takes a little edge off my bitterness in reflecting on this is that I'm officially in a taper week leading up to the Manhattan Half Marathon on Sunday.  But I'm gonna lose it.  Aaaaggghhhh.

Also, the temperature is now in the teens.

I hate everything.

  1. It is so cold out. And I had an almost equally terrible day. I feel your pain. I am going to curl up under plenty of covers and watch some junk TV show (cough-Biggest Loser).

  2. You sound like you're in my mood right now. Nothing sounds good to you and it's kind of just miserable. Hopefully tomorrow will be better for both of us!

    1. You're right! And I feel guilty about being so pissy. I'm sorry! Tomorrow will be a whole new day, though. Fortunately, the roads will still be there for me to run on.

  3. Ha, seems like I would want to stay away from you right now! I need a wife that runs, so I feel your pain!

    1. Hey, who knows... You might just kick my butt and make me go running right now instead of sitting on the couch complaining about. And then I might not be so bad to be around.

  4. Bummer of a day! I made a crock pot failure today also. It was the first time (in 5 years of marriage) that my husband and I couldn't eat it- we threw the whole thing away!!

    Hope you have a better day tomorrow :)

  5. Trouble comes in threes! So it sounds like you're set. Sooo annoying when you go to a meet up and nobody shows though. What a waste of time and disrespectful.

    But my hubby doesn't run either. He jogs a few miles every couple of days to maintain weight but NEVER with me. Then again, because he never runs races, I know I always have a cheering section! Good luck with your half this weekend though!! I hope it warms up for it. This cold is too cold for me
