I was aggravated this morning. Very aggravated. My plan was to go for a run today. I was so irritated, I threw on my sneakers, grabbed my music and hit the pavement in my pajamas. I started off great, but after about 5 minutes, the fact that I just went for it and did not stretch, set in. UGH. What a horrible decision. Even at that point ” Just Keep Swimming” didn’t even work – it was ” Try not to die” . So, I changed up to a walk. Just a plain walk. Let myself down. I think that is the worst part, I did it to myself. Not that I am any sort of runner, but I was ready for the challenge and I failed myself. If I had just taken 10 minutes to stretch out, my legs would not have been as bad and I wouldn’t of been a spazatron.
To boot – after I fail myself and resort to the walk – there is this itty bitty chick running around past me. What ever, I was thinking, like, Really? Was that God’s way of saying – ” Next time stretch , ass hole.” No, I think it was when she lapped me as I attempted walking. Seriously? I do not know this person at all, but it was like she was sent from the God’s to mock me and my failure. Like ” Haha bitch, get back out there and run!” I failed. Massive fail.
So today’s lesson kids is : Stretch! Before your workout! Duh. Ugh.
Less Thighs More Thunder 
stretching and water are king with running. and failures amount to progress if you let them. I’ve started to embrace failure, because it means I can get better!
Always working to get better! Thanks for stopping by!
Failure is always good, cause it only can go up from there! Thanks for stopping by!
