TOUGH!!! TOUGH!!! RUN

Today was a very hard run for me...I started off sore in places I'm usally not sore in...then by mid run the soreness subsided..Then towards the last part of the run I became completely exhausted...but I never stopped running...I ran 50 hard minutes... I still Have not reach that Hour that I'm striving for..I think it's time for some much needed rest...I have been running 8 days straight without any rest in between...I think I'm on my way to overdoing it..because now every one noticed that I have lost some weight and I'm becoming tone and fit..Now they want my advice and my help which is putting a strain on me and jeopardizing my workout...SO needless to say I'm stopping that before it gets started..I will be resting tomorrow which is Saturday and resting Sunday...on my rest days I will simply be doing a leisure walk...

40 minutes....ROUGH START

Today I ran for 40 minutes which was a surprise to me and my husband considering that it was such a rocky start..I complained the whole way there because I'm moody...time of the month...I also got to the track started running and felt an odd feeling in my left knee...so afraid of anything ruining my new found love of an old flame (running)..that I turned around walked back to the car and went straight to WAL-MART TO GET some support for my knee...We got what we thought I needed and went back to the Lake.; 40minutes had pass..so I'm immediately frustrated..because I have a 4 year old daughter who wakes up way before 7 so the closer it got to 6am the more anxious I got to get my run started and over..By the way I also have a 8 year old and 17 year old whom I leave in charge of the Little ones..so no child is endangered..anyway when I pulled out the knee support it was bulky clearly the wrong thing almost impossible to run in I NEEDED AN IT-BAND..so I tooked it off and left it in the car..AND RISK INJURING MY KNEE...SO I made sure I concentrated on my form and pronation..(foot striking)..and started off very slow and ended up to very well...WHEW!!!! ANOTHER RUNNING DAY DOWN..
