Sleepy Runner

I’ve been a bad runner lately. Actually more like a sleepy runner. Everyday I’ve attempted to get up and run, I could barely keep my eyes open and went back to sleep instead. Kitty doesn’t help either when he snuggles up in the crook of my arm. How can I wake the kitty? Bit I promise that tomorrow, no matter how nicely kitty is snuggled, I WILL get up and run. I WILL!

I was awake enough to make it to practice last night, just in time for MORE HILL TRAINING!!! I’m always excited for hills. This week’s workout was similar to last week’s- run up the hill as hard as you can. I told Krista that last week this workout made me feel like I wanted to throw up. She said that means I did it right. So I did it again. There was more running and more wanting to throw up. SO MUCH FUN!! That was all sarcastic and none of it was fun or exciting. It was exhausting. But I did get some new shoes, which is actually very exciting (if you’re a runner or a lame person like me). There was nothing wrong with my other shoes, but I had been feeling like I might like a little extra cushion sometimes, plus shoes were 40% off for DetermiNation athletes. And most runners have more than one pair of shoes. So I bought these bad boys.

I don’t actually know what they are, other than Nikes. I wore them on the run last night and didn’t take the box with me. But I can tell you they are VERY comfortable. They have a little bit more squish and the toe box is very soft. I didn’t get a single blister! These might have to be my new long run shoes.

In other news, kitty is OBSESSED with the bath tub. He sneaks in there and stares at the water drops left in the tub. He's weird.
