Niki's Neverending Adventure

I woke up at 8am this morning not really feeling a run but knowing that I needed to. I decided to run today, take tomorrow off, and do another longer run on Friday. I wanted Thursday off because it’s always nice to have a day off before a longer run so your legs feel good and also it’s supposed to rain tomorrow! So I got out and did a fast(for me) 2 miler. I started off with my legs feeling tight and sore and it took about a half mile for them to feel good. And after that I was going fast and it was tough!! Here’s my stats:

Avg. Pace: 9:00 min/mile

Mile 1: 9:38

Mile 2: 8:22!! Yay!!!

So I pretty much smoked it after mile 1!! And I felt like I was flying! Wish I could run that fast for longer than a mile or 2! I got home and took Sadie for about a 1 mile walk and the sky turned black. It started thundering as we were walking but luckily we made it home just in time. And they sky opened up! It poured and thundered and lightninged(is that even a word??) I do like a good thunderstorm once and a while!!

I did week 2 day 2 of the 100 push up challenge. It’s definitely getting tougher!! I can really feel my abs working when I do my push ups! That’s kinda weird I thought but fine with me!! I also did some lunges and squats before I was ready to eat my breakfast!! I need to add more pics to my posts! Maybe I will start to take food pics more often! Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday!
