Twisted Mind of an Apple

This morning was a debate whether I should go out to run or not. It was usually so hard to wake up Saturday morning at 5:45am when its so cold out and I already know that what I am going to do is something active and later on painful.

Buuuut! It was all worth it you know. As usual we met around Santa Monica and started running before 7am. The view was awesome. It was different since we heade the north route.

Yes it was painful at the begining but after 30-45 minutes its all easy. Of course I have set up my Ipod to have the best adrenaline-pumping songs to keep me going further. It helps a lot!

O well, it was fun and next week it will be 26 full miles so that means I have to run every day this coming week so it will be as much fun as this 12 miles this morning. I finished this morning’s run in 2 hours 20 minutes. Not bad after all the stop traffic lights. I shouldn’t be lazy anymore, I will do my midweek run!

Last Saturday Jan 6th, I finished my first longest run ever. It lasted for 4 hours 38 minutes.
I wish I could tell exactly how it went. But all I know, aside from my very sore legs after the run, it was a life-moving experience. The satisfaction is incomparable. I cannot explain why the hell I am doing it knowing that it will be just extreme pain during and afterwards. Hmmmp! Maybe I should say, I like doing the extremes and I am glad I found and met people who have the same wavelength as I do. I can’t wait til I do my first Marathon. For sure, that would be intense like this 23 miles. I just feel great!!!
