Where did this come from? Well, honestly, from me I think. When I come in from a run, the diva often says "eww, you're wet and sweaty." I just keep telling her that being sweaty means I'm working hard. At least something I said seems to be sticking now. What I hope she also is learning is that hard work pays off.
Fun anecdote aside...it was your average night in the gym. Moderate run, followed by strength training. I broke up the sets reading Divergent. With the movie coming out, I feel like I need to read the book first (unrelated editorial...the Mortal Instruments series was really good, but th movie sucked HUGE).
Tonight I tugged a muscle in my back a little awkwardly. Luckily, this happened during my last exercise, so I cut it short by a rep in hopes that I wouldn't do more damage. I'll just rest it a bit so that whatever happened back there will work itself out before my barre class on Saturday. I'm really looking forward to the class and it would be a bummer if I had a tweaked back muscle keeping me from enjoying it and the benefits it will bring to my running.
Here's to hard work and running injury free. Happy trails!!!
