I feel like I blinked my eyes this week and it was Thursday. It’s been a crazy week at work and at home and I’m ready for a bit of R&R. My schedule last weekend sort of spilled over into this week and I’ve been burning the candle at both ends. I see the light at the end of the tunnel though so this weekend will be more even and not so jam packed. Whew!
Since I didn’t really plan out a post and have a writer’s block thing going on, Three Things Thursday is here to save the day!
1. I’m going to run ten miles on Saturday. I haven’t run ten miles since the Jacksonville Marathon and it’s high time I get my long runs back in gear. I’m going to take this run as easy as possible and enjoy the time with my girlfriends. I need a nice, long, chatty, run. It soothes my soul.
2. It’s BethMonth! That’s right, it’s my birthday month and I am lining up celebrations. I just love birthdays. Especially mine. I wonder if I’ll feel this way when I turn 90? I’ll be grabbing my besties and hitting up the shuffleboard clubs. All while wearing sequins, natch.
3. I’m learning that certain shoes bug my heels when I’m not running. I have one pair of flats in particular that make my heels very angry. I’m going to skip wearing those babies for a bit and see how it goes. In general though, my heels are feeling better and I’m not cringing in the morning when I wake up. I’ve been doing some PT exercises before and after my runs so I’m sure that’s helping a ton. Thanks PT Steph!
And since that’s all I got, here’s my favorite singing goat video.
I have found in the last couple of years, since becoming a runner, flip flops and other flat shoes are not my friend. This is a bummer because I used to wear them all the time. Ah well… Enjoy your long run!
I'm learning that heels are not my friend. It's sad!
Happy Birthday month! I am so glad I am not the only one that declares a month of birthday shenanigans!
I havent been able to wear heels since injuring my feet.
Get back out there for those long run! Very cool. I always feel a little more badass every time I hit double digit miles.
That may be the best video that I've seen in quite a freaking while!
Good luck on the 10 miler. It'll be good for your soul!
Happy bethmonth to you! It's my birthday month too
Happy Birthday (month) to you!
I'm currently fighting heel pain too. If you find something that works, post it please.
