Running through my head*
Sunday, June 14, 2009 at 7:54PM Okay. Make sure I warm up. I stretched. I hydrated. Don't eff it up now by not warming up.
Forgot my sunglasses.
"Running up the driveway doesn't count," haha, honey. I don't see YOU exercising.
Okay, really going now.
Running. Really, running? Wtf is wrong with me?
Maybe I should pretend something large and toothy is chasing me.
I wonder if I could drop kick that guy who is standing perilously close to the edge of the water without breaking stride?
Hey, this isn't so bad.
Hydrating is good, except now I have to pee. Running while having to pee? Not so good.
I wonder if I could drop kick that Canadian goose without breaking stride?
Still have to pee.
Stretching, hydrating, and warming up properly actually works! I feel like I could run forever! This is further than I've ever run before! This is great! This is - owowowowowowowow shin splint!
Well, fuck.
*Get it? Because it's about running? Right? Okay, fine, it wasn't funny. Shut up, I just went for a run. What did YOU do?

I did nothing, but reading about YOU running has me out of breath. Good job on the run, though!
doing anything when you have to pee (after having children) is not good!
Good for you for running!
I would have to be chased by something large with teeth to run anywhere. You're a star for going.
I ate perilous amounts of fondue in celebration of my first anniversary and thought about how running right now would force me to lose the expensive contents of my stomach.
You are going to do wonderful in your marathon!!!
I didn't run and after reading this I'm glad.... :)
well,
WE didn'y get a shin splint! bwaaaaahahaha! ooooops! just kiddin'
... not funny. :-0
tee-hee! :-)

.ero
You've got one over on me. I haven't run in awhile and I really need to.
You could drop kick the man or the goose. No problem.
I read your post and now I'm winded. Off to take a nap.
I hate running! I'll stick to doing Yoga. Yeah, its harder to hold in pee after having kids so go right now before you run!
Hate running! With my flat ass feet I dont get far...
Rather than run, might I suggest my workout routine - high reps of low weight (12 oz to be precise) arm curls.
I ate some instant oatmeal and drank 3 cups of coffee.
Gimme a break; I stepped on something vile on my kitchen floor (what? You expected it to be clean??) and ripped a hole in the bottom of my foot yesterday; I'd look pretty silly limping on the treadmill.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Oooh, running. Drop kick the guy, not the goose. Goose will bite. They're mean feathered beasts...
hope you invested in good sports bra. I don't run. yuck.
YAY! for getting the run in. I could loan you something large with Teeth if you like?
What did I do? Missed a dunk, then drop kicked the tree in retaliation.
Beat that!
Well I thought it was funny... screw the rest who didn't!
Well, more power to you for getting out and trying. I only run when I'm chasing errant toddlers. :)
Running down the driveway does so count!!
Good job! It takes a lot to get out there and run. Esp. when you have to pee. That stinks. I know, I've been in that particular situation a time or two.
And I hurt my back last week while working out. Well actually I was just bending over to attach the ankle strap and my back broke in half. Yeah, while bending over. Getting old sucks.
Sitting, I wonder if I can get to the bathroom before the commercial is over?
ringing phone, I wonder if I should answer it?
Fuck! I knew I shouldn't have answered it!
Dogs barking at something, should I go look?
That was a waste of time!
Goddamnit! I should have just gone goose kicking with Keely! LMAO!!
Oww! Laughed so hard I hurt my back!
I don't run, but I could definitely medal at sitting on my butt.
Powerlifting on Friday, a day off on Sat, heavy lifting and cardio on Sunday, pilates on Monday.
And I do try to stay hydrated.
I walked to RiteAid. Rah. Rah.
(Siss boom ba!)
damn, girl, you did it. wow. i'm in awe.
