Numerous loud thunder struck a few minutes prior to my 5:55am alarm rang
this morning. My not awake mind jumped to conclude that our long run workout
was canceled. Once 6:00am came around, I regained consciousness and texted Coach
just to make sure the workout was in fact not going to take place. With
surprise, his text said “yes, we are running!”. I also contacted Oriana whom I
had promised I would go to training and again to my surprise her reply state “I’m
already on my way…” So I gathered my will power and told her I would get out of
Bed and get my behind over to the meeting point. Meanwhile , Gene texted “uummm
lighting outside” followed by “It’s nasty out there” but afterm commiting I was not going to let HIM slack… I told him there is no excuses we
are going to do this! His later reply stated that he was on his way! :)
After a friendly 11.7 easy run, I am very thankful Oriana motivated me to get
up and get going and that I consequently returned the favor and got Gene out there. That's a great reason to smile! :)
Aaaaaah the power of positive influence!!!
Moral of today’s blog post:
I rewarded my body and mind with a heart friendly breakfast loaded with protein, fiber and antioxidant: Greek yogurt, blueberries, and wheat and barley cereal.
