Yeah B,, I have a love/hate relationship with that machine also... some days I can just blow right through it, and other days I do one and my lower back is saying... "no, I'm not doing this today'

I am so unbeleivably exhausted...only 5hrs. sleep last night...just not sleeping well, plus my legs were killing me! They still are today, so I postponed my run til tomorrow, hopefully my legs wont hurt so bad!

Sometimes the extra day off is just what you need. Get some rest!

yep, sometimes rest can make you stronger when you come back.

i hope this week's rest from my sinus infection doesn't do too much harm to my lifts. It's funny, when you go to the gym regularly, and then miss a day or so, you feel like there's something misssing in your life. but when you walk back in the door, you're so amp'd for your workout and feel so refreshed from your rest.

another lost cause as to running a 3rd day this week

only got about 5 1/2hrs sleep, and I will probably have to work 12hrs today... next week I go to 3rd shift, so MAYBE that will help. Also, my legs are still super sore....I think I am going to cut out my leg lifting until the run (2 weeks) if I do anything it will be very light weights, or incline walking....we shall see. If I've learned anything over the past several years it's that I need to listen to my body

bad news guys....I may have to drop out of trail run, or at the very least, I may be walking it...I went out to run it today, and it did not go well. The trail is very hard to start with, and I was in WAY over my head. but anyways...about 1-1.5 miles in, I got really sick (both ends) from over exersion...I could barely make it back to the truck, I was half walking, thinking I was gonna have to crawl. Cody was waiting for me, I broke out in tears....I am so dissapointed in myself. I guess everyone needs to know there limitations, and I was trying to press my limits too fast. A trail run is something you definetly need to train for over a long period of time. Cody has gotten on to me about being too hard on myself, and that I should be proud for doing what I did, and he was glad that I had the good sense to turn around and head for help instead of being stubborn and hurting myself worse... I guess this dissapointment will pass, but right now I am so pissed at myself.

Sounds like you made a good choice. I'm proud of you for setting your sights so high!

Sorry B to hear that... I know how you feel...kinda..

If it makes you feel any better..... I can only withstand about 4-5 days of our hunting trip before I break down... litterly... bawling because it's so hard... then I re-group,, toughen up,, and go at it again..

I feel like I'm in boot camp.. but, I guess it's good for me

Hey sweety you did great. And hey just think if you went half way then turned around you really did the whole thing So you still finished just in a different fashion!

Keep training dont give up! This should be motivation not a reason to give up!
