Not feeling so good today. My uterus is screaming at me...and I get so lethargic during this time. So that is why I have another hour or so of nap time logged. I woke up, took some ibprofen, ate breakfast, checked email and went back to bed. Woke up still groggy but made myself walk the dogs. I threw in some jogging intervals and counted this mile as my warm up.

The new shoes are comfy-I got them at kohls yesterday. Trying a new brand and so far I like asics. I'm still going to use my brooks but I thought if I switched shoes every other day they would be able to breath and perhaps work better for me. Plus the brooks aren't going to last another 2 months so I figured I would break in these pair before the 1/2.

I thought I would get rained on. This thought made me happier and run faster...but then the drizzling went away and I was sad. :( no rain for me. ...

Off to a cold bath to help my muscles!

Nice run today! Good idea to rotate the shoes on each run.

Nice miles for feeling crappy! Dang uterus anyway. A cold bath! BRRR, it makes me cold to even think about that. Its so cold here the last few days, I am seriously thinking of driving all the way to the ski cabin tonight so that I can have a sauna.

Great distance considering you weren't feeling well. Sorry it didn't rain on you.

I rotate shoes, but it's about time for me to get some new ones too.
