i hate waking up, but i love being up. my mood is so deliciously great today! i had a fucking fantastic workout, the hawks won (and what a GAME!), the world cup is HERE (almost), we won our first bocce playoff game, max is coming….
this morning the sun was shining so it wasn’t so bad getting up after a late night of stanley cup winning. i love tuesday and thursday spin, bc they are my favorite teachers. erica’s class was AWESOME today. we did three HUGE hill climbs and i was a fountain of sweat. my legs worked HARD. and everything felt great. i chugged along for a few extra miles while she was cooling most of the rest of the class down then headed to treadmill for a 2 mile run that also felt amazing.
i have been working really hard at changing my technique and i think its starting to feel more natural - meaning, i don’t have to constantly think about it, but just check in with myself every now and then. it felt particularly funny bc i wore my sneakers, which i really have not worn in about a month. i have been running pretty exclusively in my vibrams or barefoot. but, i’m still a bit too embarrassed in the gym! can you believe it?! i need to get over that. it was so cushiony in the sneaks. that’s not good or bad, but it did mean i had to think a bit more about my step without the messaging coming from my soles that i have grown used to.
