Shut Up and Run.

 

Chardonnay and Jellybeans February 27 2005

Filed under: General — pamalamadingdong @ 11:52 am

My evening was spent with 3 glasses of wine and a bag of jellybeans. I LOVE jellybeans and they go quite lovely wit h the wine.
My sister enjoyed her honey-brown lager and swedish berries just as much.
I did not do my long run yesterday. I tried…I got about 3k and my shins locked up. You know that cramping they will not relax feeling? Isn’t that lovely? I walked for a bit…tried to stretch them out (OW!) and then ran for about 5 minutes before swearing (semi-unquietly) and walking home.
A sure sign I need new shoes. But still…I hate it when I miss a long run, cause I REALLY miss it. All day I felt like a slacker like there was something I should’ve been doing. This weekend is a wash for running. I’m not going to go out again until I after I buy shoes tomorrow. Otherwise they just get worse and worse..stupid shins!
Hubby made eggs benedict for breakfast this morning…and the entire house smells of bacon. I HATE the smell of bacon. I feel like I am coated in grease. Nasty.
But yummy
My sister is feeling but better. She doesn’t feel as scrambled as she did yesterday. She is making more sense that’s for sure. And she has a better grip on what’s happening around her.

Rick I will do your meme later, when I have uninterrupted time on the computer. HA! Like that ever happens.

Uh, oh, Pam. Shins. Pain. Not good. Do your stretches in between glasses of wine. Ice too. Don’t want shin splints spoiling the season. You’ve had a lot of mileage lately and maybe the shins are telling you to be nice, or else.

Glad your sister is feeling better. A concussion is bad.

Wine and jelly beans. Oh my gosh–two of my favorite things. I have to admit to never having tried them together, though:) Or maybe there was a 5 minute break or something!

 
David Says:

Shin splints. Shoes? Yeah. You’re probably right. Are you alternating shoes every run?

 
debby Says:

I only like the orange jelly beans…I guess they could still go good with wine.

 
jank Says:

It’s got to be the shoes …

Don’t let the shins go too long. My lovely wife ended up getting shin splints a couple of years ago, and it was only about 2 months of no running at all that made her better.

Eggs benedict.. yuummy! I don’t know if you have Ricky’s restaurants where you live but they make great eggs benedict. They have about four variations.

Deene Says:

I don’t like that bacon smell either, when my hub cooks it for breakfast it makes my hair smell like it all day long. nasty.
Take care of those shins, stretch well before and after running.
