Happy Active Saturday! It’s bright and early in the morning and I’m working on a microbiology enviroment 10 page report. 4 pages down and I’m determined to get that sucker done today.
Yesterday, I was supposed to go to the gym, but here’s the truth. I had to hand wash a sports bra and it didn’t fully air dry so I didn’t want to go to the gym in a wet bra. So my workout session ended up at the grand old dirt trails. I ran for 60 minutes. And what do I see other than TWO 2-FOOT SNAKES! I had to jump over them as they were in the middle of the dirt trail. I screamed like a girl and then ran like a boy. If that isn’t enough to make someone run a 5 minute mile, I don’t know what is. I promise to go back to get pictures for my Marathon Sweetheart blog! Who cares if I get bitten if it means I will get pleasure AND proof of saying I battled a snake?
All my bras will be dry and today’s workout will take place in the gym. I wanted to bring to you this week’s Weekly Running Quote #5 in the form of a picture.
It reads:
I HAVE THUNDER THIGHS. And that’s a compliment because they are strong, and toned and muscular. And though they are unwelcomed in the petite section, they are cheered on in marathons. Fifty years from now, I’ll bounce a grandchild on my thunder thighs, and then I’ll go out for a run. Just Do It.
(See my other Nike Women’s ad: “My Butt Is Big” post here.)
I absolutely love this!!! My legs are one of my favorite things about my body! I love that they are strong and how running has sculpted them.
“I am grateful for _____ about my body.” Fill in the blank!
