I've had a couple of really good days of running and pilates. I'm actually a little bit surprised at myself. I did a long run (10 miles) that included running to the base of the Capital Crescent trail along the Potomac with TK. We tried the Galloway method or 7-8 minutes of running and then one minute of walking. Sure my legs felt fine and I felt faster during those 7-8 minutes, but overall it felt slower to me. I know it's a psychological thing tough. I also did a pilates class at the gym. They changed instructors (and I liked the old instructor) and the new girl went right into it and didn't really believe in resting between sets. So overall, my core is sore! (Yes, bad puns abound). And then this morning I did my typical 3 mile loop with JW. I had to drag myself out of bed, but at least I went.
So, how did I reward myself after yesterday's long run? Ate a pint of Ben and Jerry's. I'm thinking my 20 in 2010 is going to be hard to reach.....so long as I reach for the B&Js.
