Hissy fit over - back on track

So, last week I thought I would just see what I could do...non program related. Well, that was a huge mistake, because I was not happy with the results. As it turns out, you can't do three weeks of a nine week couch to 5K running program and run 3 miles. For whatever reason, I was surprised and extremely disappointed in this fact. So, I pitched a little hissy fit and stopped the program for the week. That's right - I took the whole week off.

Now, since I have told everyone and their mother that I'm running this little (HA!) 5K, I have accountability partners around every corner. And my coworker, fellow runner, and friend is making me run this week. Out.side.

I'm sorry, what? Yeah...outside. Does she know how hot it is? Does she know I took a week off? Does she know that I'm going to melt? I mean, doesn't sugar melt in the heat? I know it at least caramelizes!! Come on!!

Yeah, well there is no changing her mind, and if I'm going to be truthful, I know it's best. So, with much despair, I go into the world this evening to die. Ok, maybe just get my butt kicked. Stay tuned for the results or the funeral info (lol!)
