Early morning workout 8th day of training.





I started my training early this morning, I have a 6:00 meeting afterwork and it is suppose to rain so my best bet was to get my butt out of the bed and get it done! The start of my run was tuff, my body felt it weighed a 1,000lbs but around 5 minutes or so into the run I was feeling much lighter and ready to complete the remainder of today's training. My knee felt better and my heel as well but I have to say they are both still ticking me off, I am being carefull though to not over due it and make it worse. I tell you I am here to testify that my body is not my 20 year old body that is for sure but its my problem that I have created not being in shape and I am a living example of it and feel it every day that I hit that pavement.

During the training though I listen to my ipod shuffle while sporting my new Nike earphones that my sister Lori bought me! They are so perfect for running by the way they fit around the ears so here is a shout out to my sister "THANK YOU LO LO". But during this time there is a lot of time to reflect on things. I personally understand from my friend Todd about the time with God during your training, for me it just seems to happen and its a great place for me to be. It's funny how during a strenuous time (workout) that my personal time with God kicks in and I have needed that for a while. I have tell you I chat with Him and let Him know where I am at and what I need His guidance on and I am believing for a break through in so many areas especially this training stuff but I have to remember to listen!!

Well I have to run, I am in the process of getting my desk cleared before this work day is over.

Catch you tomorrow.

  2. Hey Karen,
    I went back and caught up on your posts. Your doing a great job and I LOVE the video diary and I LOVE those southern accents you and Lori have. Keep up the hard work it will pay off. I need to get motivated myself. Mountain biking once a week just isn't enough! Take care and thanks for the link to my blog on your sidebar. I will add yours to mine.
