Tired

After my Tuesday workout my body was really tired. I did my first one mile run on the treadmill at the gym. Went slow and ran at a 12.00 minute pace. Running felt OK. My ankle didn't hurt. I also did an hour of weights.

I had to go buy new shoes for running. Got a Nike Pegasus. Never ran in a Nike before so it will be interesting to run in one. I posted my entry for cool online. Just in case i can't make it to the race someone else could run.

One of the lessons i have recently learned is to know when to hold on to your cards and when to fold. I have decided that it is better to make sure that my ankle is healed completely than to run cool for emotional reasons. There will be other opportunities to run cool. But coming to that decision was hard. You really have to strip your ego. Because often some of us run for ego reasons. To tell ourselves or our friends we did it. This injury has really taught me to be humble and that being aligned with your source keeps you balanced. Running has always been my way of understanding myself. And that is one reason i am addicted to running.

Planning to run 2 miles today. It is very cold out here. Still have to get used to running in the cold.
