Ah..... I look forward to this day all week long, I get to sleep in and get to spend all day doing whatever I want without worrying about how early I have to wake up the next day.
I wouldn't call myself a morning person, actually am far from it, but this whole day job thing has set my body clock to wake me up early in the morning even if I didn't want to.
Sleeping in until 9 o'clock has become a luxury and boy, did that feel so good today. Waking up to no alarm has to be one of my favorite things and I did just that.
Breaking up with my bed never gets easier but I knew I had to leave him for a hot date with the pavement this morning and I knew it was the right decision.
I finished my bowl of oatmeal with mixed berries, sliced up banana, and a handful of almonds and head outside. Although it was a bit chilly (ok, chilly for us Arizonans, it was like 52 degrees this morning!) I knew that would keep me running to keep myself warm. I didn't really keep my usual pace, I wanted this to be a relaxing nice morning jog and I was so relaxed and found myself keep smiling throughout the run. Running makes me happy (especially when I'm done, let's be honest) and that's why I call it the Pavement Therapy. If you're not a runner, just try to start slow by running around the block. You'll want to give up but when you push out that weakness whispering in your ear telling you to stop, the rest gets easier, trust me.
Now I'm off to go get my hair did and have some fun with my girlies. I hope everyone has a fantabulous Saturday!! Catch you guys later! :)
Cheers,
J Bae
Kudos to you!! I struggle with running. Not gonna lie. But it's part of my new year's resolution in a way this year. I even signed up for a marathon. Yikes! Thanks for the motivation!
