Runner’s high

I probably haven’t gotten a runner’s high in over a year.  But I got one today!  At least a little bit of one.  I did intervals on the treadmill - 30 seconds jogging (like 6.5mph) and 30 seconds fast (10 mph) - 8 intervals total plus a little time in between for the dreadmill to adjust speed.  I thought I was going to die toward the end.  But as I tell the folks in the C25K groups I coach, if it’s hard it means it’s working!  And it was definitely hard.  Looking forward to next time now!

Workout

So I went yesterday and did my first strength training workout of my new routine.  I got up this morning and was actually disappointed that I felt no muscle soreness at all.  However, the disappointment is slowly moving out and the DOMS is moving in.  I might need help moving tomorrow.  And I like it! :)

I hate to rub it in, but this is where my running group meets every week. Everyone brings food and we have a big ol’ potluck and fellowship time afterward. An awesome group of folks!
