Today's run was good. I finally ran 3.1 miles in under 30 minutes, in 29:09! Yea doggies! Unfortunately, I had heard that it was only going to be 74* for a high today but when I got outside to run, it felt a lot warmer than that. I knew I was going to be in trouble even before running. Sure enough, at the end of the run, the bank said 80*.
When I first started running, I was already hurting. See, it's a few days before my period so my breasts are swollen and hurting. I have small breasts, A cup. I hated my breasts when I was younger, always wanted bigger ones. Until I started running that is. Now I'm glad that I don't have to deal with them bouncing or keeping them in place with 2 sports bras. Especially after today. With them swollen and painful, the bouncing of my runs are not comfortable. If I had B or C cups, I'm sure they would be bouncy but not painful like today. But if they were, I'm glad I don't have them! I only have to deal with this once per month and that's more than enough for me.
I ran past my boss on the bike path. She was going the opposite way than I. I knew she was running but have never seen her out and about before.
Apparently, I also have now ran 500 miles on Nike+! I was given the option to buy a shirt that says this but it's out of stock. :-(
Olympic Women's Marathon is this Sunday. I haven't decided who I'm cheering for. While I want Deena Kastor to win and get above her bronze medal (her finish at Athens is sooo moving), I also like Paula Radcliffe since she's overcoming an injury! The defending champion from Japan is out after an hamstring injury she got during training.
