I asked the awesome Libby for some advice on some leg toning exercises, and she suggested some pretty intense combinations of lunges and squats. Let me just say that I am SORE, as in lots and lots of pain. On the plus side, I think they’re working. My legs and my backside are feeling alot more toned and strong already, so thanks again Libby, and my new Brazilian bikini thanks you as well.
In other news I found out why I haven’t been running well lately…..Coffee. It pains me to say it, but it seems like my afternoon coffee was throwing off my groove. I ran today without having had it, and I had zero side stitches, zero waves of nausea, and a wonderful 3.5 mile run in about 30 minutes. Adios afternoon coffee, it’s been fun but running is more important, I’m sure you understand. Don’t worry though we’ll always have our mornings together, that will never change I assure you.
The funny thing is that when I was training for my half marathon, I remember having an afternoon coffee, a couple hours before my run, pretty much every day and it not bothering me at all, I guess things change. Now that I figured out what my problem is, I’m back to training for a 5k. I’ll keep you up to date on how it’s going, and when I choose which one I’m going to do.
