OW.

The title of this post pretty much sums it up for me today. But I can now say I've seen every single inch of the Sioux Falls bike trail and then some, if that says anything. But every single inch of my body and then some is pretty much is sore. Can you say "walking like a penguin?" Yeah that's me, when I actually manage to walk! I'm glad it's my off day today, I would not be able to function at work today with this painful waddle.

I hate the wind by the way - well today's wind at least, I definitely managed to run for 10 good miles INTO NNE winds SUSTAINED at 28MPH - so I'm pretty sure I ran more than 22 miles, at least it felt like more.

And talk about a mental game - I had to keep telling myself to go the whole way even though there were soooo many places where I could have turned off and gotten back to my place much faster. Kept telling myself "quarter of the way done, halfway done, three quarters of the way done, 5 miles left, 4 miles left, 3 miles left, 2 miles left, 1 mile left..." until I finally reached home! Well I actually stopped by a grocery store quick and bought a 6 pack of Propel water - yummm~ there are 2 left :) I was thirsty!

Crossfit tomorrow morning - and for once, I hope that it's an arm workout, I don't think my legs can handle any more abuse!Happy Training!
