ME BEFORE THE RECIPE…

Ben is kicking my toosh this week. Physically, he’s beat me down. Don’t worry, not in a “Lifetime movie, call the cops” kind of way. He’s just convinced me to up my workout regimen and join CrossFit.

I’ve been complaining slightly about being bored with running. It’s weird because when I wake up to run, I dread it. When I start running, I dread it. Halfway through running, I’m dreading it. And that very last push on the very last mile, I dread it.

Then I finish. And you know what??? I LOVE it!

Why does that happen? I enjoy the aftermath of running, but the actual process of running is wearing me out mentally. Maybe it’s just because I’ve been doing it for so long.

In Hawaii, I used to attend a strength training workout group with a bunch of other mamas. We would bring our kids to the church gym and workout hard for a decent 30-45 minutes while the kids ran around and played. I was notorious for ignoring my children. I wanted them to know it was mommy time and they were capable of giving me at least 30 minutes of the day to do something for myself. Because of that precedent I set, I always felt like a received an effective, uninterrupted workout.

Ever since leaving Hawaii, I haven’t attempted to continue any kind of strength training routine and I think my body is feeling it. I genuinely looked forward to the variety in workouts, and now I’m stuck doing the same dang thing every single day: run, run, run, and RUN!…
