I am always never cold.

I've been stressed out all morning, but 5.75 TM miles during lunch helped A LOT. I completely zoned out for the first half and it was bliss, I could feel the stress falling away.  The second half was a little harder and I noticed my legs felt heavy.  But I cranked up my music, zoned out again and felt much better by the end.  Now I'm back at work, only a couple of emails came in while I was gone, so I'm hoping for a relatively stress-free afternoon

I do have to say though, that questionable decisions were made in the design of the new gym, especially in the locker rooms.  For starters, and this will slowly drive me insane, when they moved the lockers from the old space to the new one, they did not put them in numerical order.  What kind of person would do that and think it's okay?!?

 

That's unacceptable.  And stupid.  And we should hunt this person down and make them count to 100 repeatedly.  That would make me so mad too!

I've seen their work and think they would fail.  Worse, they wouldn't know that they failed or understand why we hate them.  Stupid people suck.

 

I shouldn't mention my AC at home is always at 77F when I run on the TM.  My husband, fearful from the cold...

What? How?!

What???! That boggles my mind. why WOULDN'T you????

LM & LRB, b/c of you two, I am now wanting to open a bottle of wine. It's 3:17. Sigh. I'll have to wait a few more hours. LM, your post about you hating the world had me cracking up. You're a great writer. Sorry it was such a sucky hot run. Enjoy your SRD.

I did 6.1 on the TM and was cracking up watching BCS. That show is brilliant.

I’m always cold. Always.

I ran 8 with 3x1 mile repeats with half mile recovery . Goal was 6:30. They sucked ass. Splits were like 6:52,6:37 and 6:43. But I have a head cold and my face is on fire and 3 weeks ago I couldn’t even run 1K repeats at a sub 7 pace so whatever. My calf was bothering me on the cool down, just really tight and achy. Felt it a couple days ago too. It’s the bottom third of my calf into the inside of my ankle. It doesn’t hurt to jump on it and there isn’t any sensitive spots, and it seemed more annoyed with calf raises so I think it’s muscle related

5.4 miles with 2 x 10 minutes. First was supposed to be at HM pace, second at 10k. 9:32 and 9:06 pace, good enough. Absolutely freezing now, it was cold & windy, now I'm under a blanket trying to warm up.  Oh, for cold, heated mattress pads are the best invention ever.
