Day 17 complete

I am happy to say that I have completed 17 days of my run streak.  This week has been an off week and today is the only day that I have ran more than one mile.  It couldn't have come at a better time either.  Have you ever just had one of those days that you knew that a run would have made it so much better?  Where the time didn't make a difference, it was about clearing your head and how you felt after you completed the run.

I started out this morning just getting on the treadmill to run my mile and after running my mile I decided that I was going to run 2, after I reached 2 I decided to run 3 and I am sure that you can see the pattern that is developing here. When I completed four miles, I felt so much better and I could continue my workout with lifting weights.  I do have say running today, even though it felt amazing afterwards, was probably the hardest run that I have ever done. 

I say this because of everything that was going on and really in reality I was probably just trying to "run" from my problems.  There was several times that I almost burst into tears and then there was times that I sprinted because I was mad.  I had so many emotions going on that at times I pretty much forgot that I was running on the treadmill.  Which is very weird coming from me.

I guess that for this post this is all that I have but I just wanted to update all of you on my run streak and sorry about the little extra part but that was part of my run for the day.  Will be running 5 tomorrow in training so I will be blogging soon about that.  Below is my recap from my run so until next time.
