Bu-mmer!! It was clear it was off to the treadmill for me! Elly needed some consoling as well:
Before hopping on the mean machine, I did some emailing and secretly hoped I'd take long enough that the rain would stop and I could run outside. Then, I thought better of it -- I'm better but not completely well, and, truth be told, chilly air is hurting every part of my nasal cavity. As I sat and wrote some notes, I thought it best that I plan on the treadmill no matter what the weather was like when finished.
Fortunately, I'm good at sticking to pre-made plans when they're made in a solid foundation because the rain had stopped, but I still headed to the treadmill. I could have gone out, but I knew I shouldn't. *sigh* I will note, though, this is quite possibly the first treadmill run I've finished where I didn't complain to myself even one time while on it. I'd say that's because I'm starting to be a grown up about it, but it's really because it was that clear to me that going outside wasn't a good idea. I want to be well this week especially with Thanksgiving and Turkey Trax coming!! The treadmill was a small price to pay to work toward Thursday!
When I finished my miles, I sat in the recliner to finish the show I was watching while running, and I had a little suprise:
Not quite so sweet was what I came home to after making the third, "NOW we have everything we need for Thanksgiving" run to the store:
Seems Elly had a good time while I was out ... |
"I'm sorry, mama ... not enough to stop doing it, but I'm sorry right now ..." |
