Sweating before the sun comes up

I just couldn't get myself up yesterday morning. If I don't get up at 6, my workout is the thing that gets eliminated out of my schedule. 

I did manage to get up this morning, though! I'm glad I did! It was leg day. Even though I absolutely hate doing leg day, I love how I feel afterwards. 

It was another sweaty workout. And, with the time change, I was finished before had made an appearance. Lazy sun! I'm doing curtsy lunges in the above picture. I hate doing those because I almost fall over when I do them. It's worth it because it works muscles I don't often work.

I'm working on a fun post for next week. 

What workout do you hate doing, but love the results?

The sticky runner

I love my mornings! They're even better when I'm able to play with my boys, then go for a run through my local parks.

It had just rained the day before, so everything was still wet and muddy. Yay!

I ran my old route (when Lars was a baby). There are more hills than I'm use to. I also did some sprints. Hills + sprints = a very sweaty & sticky Shelly!! I even got stuck in my jacket when I got home.

After my half hour run, a recovery drink & lots of stretching were in order! I hate having sore muscles. The next day, I didn't hurt too much!

Because things have calmed down here & Jason was home this weekend, I was able to run Saturday & Sunday! I haven't run 2 days in a row in way too long!! It was great! Jason has a 4 day weekend coming up, so I should be able to run all 4 days! Can't wait...

How many days in a row do you run?
