What a Day.

I made it a point to run hills today, and to take walk breaks. Found four hills in my five mile run, they felt great, and walked for a minute twice. When I got home, I felt I could have kept going, and I’m pretty sure that is my body telling me a good thing. If I can only remember this feeling of accomplishment next time I think about pushing too hard.

Having a child on the way has caused me to become a cheap bastard, but I think I want another pair of shoes. The last week or so has been very warm and my shoes get soaked while running in slush and puddles. This made me realize that when I go to run Saturday, my shoes will probably still be wet from my Friday run. Today was dry enough that I got to run on semi-dry grass for a few blocks, the cushioning was wonderful.

I woke up in a good mood today, and it’s carried all the way through. I think tomorrow will be the same because we get to hear our kids heartbeat again, and that will never get old.
