THIS WEEK WE HAVE THE BONUS LINK UP, MARCIA’S RUNFESSIONAL!
Every month Marcia opens the runfessional – a place to let it all out and cleanse your soles; if you are needing to release some sweaty secrets or just want to get things off your chest, here’s the place to do it!
And for real, y’all, the last time I did runfessions was last year, July. Eleven months ago. I guess I just felt like I didn’t have much to say about running or have anything to runfess. And it’s not like I have a lot now, but I want to be consistent in my Friday posts, so here we are!
Was May Running a Fluke?
Could be. I started May in Málaga which absolutely lent itself to lots of running and I wanted to just continue. And that I did! I ran 100 kilometers in May! The most in, well, forever. I runfess, as of writing this, I only have 41kilometers done this month. The grand total can (and I believe will!) change as we still have a few days left of the month.
Am I the only one?
Prehab/ rehab is so so hard to do consistently! Am I the only one who feels this way? My exercises are hard (but not really) and, they even hurt a bit (well yeah, I’m supposed to be working on my hamstrings). I want to do them, I really do, so why is it so hard executing that. I runfess, I still have been hit or miss with these exercises. Even though I know I won’t improve if I don’t do the work.
I love summer, but…
Why is it only torrential downpour for a month straight (longer actually), right into hotter than Hades? Theoretically I know that getting up early and getting it done (even with walking) is the way to go when it’s hot. When I was in Spain I got up early and I was on holiday!! Again, the struggle to get up early when I’m home and get things done is still so real for me. I runfess that even though I’ve had the entire month of June off I didn’t manage once to get up early and get out the door before it was either monsooning or hotter than the surface of the sun. How do y’all do it???
I had so many plans
I runfess that all my plans to establish routine before I start my new job are still just plans. Not that I haven’t gone out and walked, run, biked and even went to the gym for group fitness and e-Gym, it’s still not consistent. I had other plans too like go see a bunch of movies, have a spa treatment, do some projects in the house, etc. Some things I did and some things I did not do. But as far as my fitness routine, it’s still a work in progress.
What do you want to runfess this month?
