Okay - let's get the ball rolling...
So as I've mentioned before, corporate life has made regular exercise really tough to fit in for me. I work A LOT.. really long days. But that's no excuse - I need to start exercising throughout the week, not just on weekends. Which is why I'm really pumped about today. I ran my first race since the half-marathon this morning and it went really well.
My race bib :)
I was worried since I've only done small runs on the weekend since the half, but today was a great surprise. The organizers changed the route last minute so it was either an 8km or a 12km - I opted for 12km. It was 2km more than what I planned for and I finished in just over 1:10. Personal record for me.
All in all it was a great morning and it's got me really pumped - hoping this momentum will translate into more weekday workouts for me because it needs to happen! Mentally and physically I NEED the exercise throughout the week! Plus, I have all sorts of races lined up and slacking off will not work once I get to the longer distances in my training.
Here's to this weekend and the upcoming week! Hoping I'm starting a trend :)
Post 12km - super happy
