I finished my 3.5 miles run pain free! It was the perfect day to run, it felt like running in air conditioned wind and it was so nice. Once I got home I drank a shakeology shake, stretched and foam rolled. I recently started using the foam roller, and I love love love it! It feels soo good on my back, hamstrings, hips, quads, and calves. I didn't end up going bike riding yesterday because my body was so sore it felt like I was going into rigor mortis so I went after my run. My legs were still a little tired so I decided to do an "easy" 10 mile ride instead of 30 mins of intervals. The first 5 miles were amazing, it was perfect. The last 5 miles I rode against the wind and my poor legs hated me, but it was definitely a good workout day!
I haven't really had many bad runs since I started running again 4 weeks postpartum (minus the minor injuries). Listening to music while I run has made the runs a million times more enjoyable. Once I get down to my old weight I will be faster and I don't think I will get some of the pains I have been having. I'm going to go to the running shoe store and see if my gait is different.. I feel like my shoes aren't giving me the support I need. I should be picking up a double jogger on Wednesday!! It is the perfect price as long as I sell my single I will break even. I really love my single but it has to go...
We were supposed to go to Busch Gardens today but my husband is sick :( He has a fever and now his throat is sore which is getting worse... my in-laws are here so that is why I was able to do my workouts outside today. I think today is going to be a beach day.. and I definitely am going to take advantage and get a nap in while I can!
