Though probably not in the way your thinking. I have decided to attempt to do RW Holiday Running Streak. It was Alexis from The Well Read Mom who initially told me about it because she was considering doing it. I mulled it over for a day and then decided to give it a go. I am thinking this will be helpful in many way, especially since the running has been awful lately (but I have still been doing it so plus one for me). The colder it gets the less I feel like getting out there and running, with this sitting in the back of my mind creating a guilt trip I will be more likely to get my butt out of the door. Also, let's not forget the fact that we are headed for Hawaii in March (unless orders get changed last minute) so the reason is pretty obvious there. One word: bathing suit.
Now I know I should be more optimistic about this but in reality I will be pleasantly surprised if I am able to actually complete the streak. It will be a challenge but a good, and attainable one. I need to develop a strategy for this though because I am one who tends to NOT er on the side of caution. In order for me to feel like it's been a good workout I need to feel like death. I will not be able to do this if I am running every single day for the next 39 days. The good news is that it only has to be a mile so the majority of days it will be just that, a mile.
I have decided to blog about my progress to keep me on track and accountable. So anyone else wanna join? It's only a mile!
