Didn’t feel it at all today. I’m really stressed out and pissed off and I had a lot going on. Just wasn’t in a good place. As soon as I got to the track, I wanted to go home. I was in such a nasty mood and it was, as we like to say in my family, fucking up my chi. But I said to myself, Self? Aside from the Red Wings game at 4:30, what else do you have going for you today?
So I ran. By the third interval, I was done in, but I pushed on. Felt really good for the fourth and fifth runs, and by the sixth I was in a better mood but really looking forward to going home.
It was 50° out there. Pretty windy, overcast. It was drizzling during my warmup which really didn’t help my mood any. Today really sucked, but the important thing is that, despite everything, I ran.
I haven’t had a chance to go shopping (no money, anyway), so for breakfast I had some sort of energy bar and a glass of rice milk. I used the rice milk in my smoothie yesterday morning because rice isn’t an arthritis trigger (whereas soy is), but it tasted like crap. Really watery. Bleh.
Before running I had a handful of almonds and raisins and now that I’m home, I’m having a “beef” burrito with bell peppers and some pico de gallo. I’m not sure about the combination, but it’s pretty much all I have to work with.
Now I’ve got my red shirt on and I’m all set to cheer on the Red Wings.
See you again on Saturday.
