I went to customer appreciation last night and got a new pair of shoes on sale. When I got home I realized they were my same riders only a different color! yah!

So funny thing about the education of America. Last night I asked for a pair of on sale shoes. The lady came out with the box and I asked how much are they. She takes a deep breath and says they were 100 but are now 30% off. I can't do that math.

I sighed and said they are 70 bucks. Who can't take a percentage off of 100? omg! Is it the math teacher in me or is this pretty basic math? end rant

Sleep was not my friend last night.

And food was not my friend today. End of month luncheon was today. Paleo went out the window.

And my stomach suffered for it on the run. I had to go number two!!!! not fun

but I saw a runner on my run, and a poop head kid that said, "Run Forest, Run" not cool kid. Not cool!

Ran by work. I fartleked! It was awesome! Not! My stomach was all messed up b/c of the chocolate I had. I found a porta potty by the park. And this is the park where the 1/2 marathon starts. It is pretty cool! And there is a dog park!

I got Jillian Michaels Yoga Meltdown Level 1. I thought it was going to be more of a cardio yoga. I'm glad that it isn't. I can feel my arms are sore--but itwasn't hard moves. My only issue is I did the yoga in my basement on a mat so my wrists are sore. Next time I'll do it upstairs on the carpet.

I I have stuff missing between my vertebrae in my spin so some of the backwards camel stuff I couldn't do.

But I"m digging the dolphin (elbow plank and then you do like a downward dog only on your elbows)

Last night it was 55 and gorgeous and an off day. today was uppers 20's WINDYand misty. Towards the end I swore I was getting hit with ice.

But I felt strong up till mile 7. That was about the time I went to my car to refil my water bottle. Off to a shower cuz I am COOOOOLLLDDD!

 

Oh I ran into a lot of people running cuz I drove to the bike path. Everyone was super nice. Except the last people I ran into. We had ended our run at the same time and they asked if I was done and asked how many I ran. I said 10. I don't wanna say that they rolled their eyes but they were all--Oh we did 15. I politely replied Oh are you training for something. Then they listed like 4 marathons. Including Chicago. Sorry I'm sure Chciago is cool and everything but just cuz you pay 140 bucks doesn't make you a bad ass. I finished stretching and wished them good luck. Their bright orange jackets were bothering me.
