Thirsty Thursday

See, back in the day, Thursday was one of the biggest nights to go out and drink at the bars when I was in college and all the drinks were only $3.  Now a days, I'm lucky if I can get my butt out of the house for a workout after a long, stressful day!  And thirsty Thursday is now what I do when I chug water after running in the heat :)

I'm motivated right now because I'm excited to get back into the running habit plus I ate a few too many mega stuffed oreos tonight (why did I even buy them?!).  So here I am dressed in not the most flattering outfit but the shorts avoid my legs from chaffing and the shirt is cool and comfy!


My training schedule said to walk for 15 minutes today since it's an active recovery day but I'm used to walking way more than that so I ended up out there for about an hour.  I also couldn't help myself but run juuust a little.  I did about 20 minutes of walk 1 minute run 1 minute.  I needed to get rid of some extra energy and frustration from my day and it worked very well. 


Hmm to the left, cloudy, to the right, sunny...


Two quick things - 1. whyy why why does my Garmin have to take absolutely forever to find where I am?  I hate standing there waiting for it to find me and then I get impatient and start walking and my type A personality can't stand that I'm not getting credit for my activity!  2. why are there cats EVERYWHERE?  Maybe it was just the neighborhood I was in but I saw FOUR cats lying in driveways looking dead until they peaked their little heads up to look at me.  I've never really heard of letting your cats roam around outside but whatever works. 


Back home again!  Cleaning up the kitchen before I head to bed.  Happy Friday Eve!

      At least you have a dog to protect you! I'm always paranoid they will panic and scratch the hell out of me, haha

    I've had that issue with Garmin a few times but thankfully not often. On the boardwalk where I run on the weekend there are a ton of stray cats. There are signs everywhere saying "do not feed the cats" but sure enough I see little old ladies feeding them and more and more keep coming. It's a good thing I'm not superstitious because 98% of them are black cats and they don't care whose path they cross ;)

      Ew! Thank goodness I haven't seen that many! That thought crossed my mind, too! I'm thinking, either I'm about to stumble upon the worst luck in the world or that's truly just a superstition.... haha!
