Confessions Go Here...

[fdcritt76]

I'm ashamed to say it, but last weekend I cried big crocodile tears at the top of the cargo net climb (Marine Mud Run).  I literally lost it.  My teammates put tension on the net to make it easier to climb, but when I reached the top I couldn't put my mind around how to straddle/swivel over the telephone pole to get to the other side.  There was nothing to grab on to and I was 15 feet in the air.  I tried to push through the silly mind game, but instead I climbed down tears and all.  What a wuss...   All of the other obstacles went on without a hitch.  The course was shorter than last year, but the terrain was tougher, and so were the obstacles.  Regret is a bitch!

My knee was hurting yesterday after my ride on Thuraday. I planned today as another rest day just to be safe. I woke up this morning and it felt totally fine, and I should have run. I couldn't get my butt in gear for it...instead I slept til 8 and made muffins. Oops. Its just the icing on the cake to top off the fact that I only ran 3.5 miles this week. Trying not to beat myself up about it. I'll just do better next week.

I slept 12 hours last night! That's unheard of around here. These last few days of school are mentally and physically exhausting! 2 more days...

[runaways]

I went on an unplanned shopping trip today and did some serious damage. J. Crew has become a black hole for my money lately.

I've had that kind of terror before, where you know it should be easy, but you just can't do it.

My confession is that I bought my first stick of body glide, and I keep giggling at all the innuendos of "my first body glide."

DD fell asleep at 6:30pm. I have no idea if this is for the night or not. I'm a little scared she'll be up at like, 3 am. I also just pumped so that I could get my drink on.

Did The Color Run today. When I sneeze, it is quite colorful. :-P

[keweenawlove]

I've got a half in the morning and I'm drinking a beer. It's carb loading, right

[mcc]

I went out dancing with a concussion and bum knee. I paid the price and had to cancel PT. I'm mad at myself and laid in my dark bedroom all day today. My back is spasming now. Fecking whip lash!

[taratru]

Today was one of those days when I reeeeeally missed being kid free.

DH is at a friend's tonight and I really want him to spend the night there. I want to hog the bed.

[enfuego23]

I had a hard cider today - it's a rarity for me to drink but yesterday and today have sucked:(

I went to lunch with a good friend today and I wanted to smack her when she told me "it's ok if you don't have kids". I don't understand why people, especially friends, feel it's necessary to give me permission to not have children.

I'm trying to ride my bike more and add more cross training into my workout schedule but biking is making my groin and hip hurt on my left side, grr.

On a happy note, only 8 more days of school!

I ate an ENTIRE jar of peanut butter in 2 days. Well actually more like a day and a half. I cannot control myself with peanut butter

Ate an insane amount of roasted beets last night. When I pee, it is quite colorful.

[CallingAllAngels]

I still have not run during the month of May.

I got crotch chaffing from a tampon string on my ride yesterday. I realized this in the shower. I'm not talking outer labia here. That string worked itself right on the inside . Ouch!!!!!!!

I have had to throw away peanut butter because I was constantly eating it out of the jar with a spoon - I'm obsessed with the PB & Co. White Chocolate Wonderful PB, it's so addicting!

ohhh my, that sounds horrible. I used to cut the string to make it shorter when I ran. I don't know if that would help in your situation, but at least there wouldn't be so much string dancing around in there.

[vanillahip]

I am a pasty ghost of a ginger and I'm practically allergic to the sun. But I have my SECOND sunburn of the year ALREADY right now, just because I'm stupid and don't pay attention and apparently subconsciously want melanoma. I'm so ashamed of myself

Agree, this sounds miserable. Add this to number of reasons why bike riding isn't for me!

[vanillahip]

Also doubly ashamed of myself for this constant ache that my baby rabies is turning in to. We're not there yet! Can't happen just yet! But dear god. Just scrolled down and saw the preg check in and it makes my ute hurt.

Yikes, that sounds painful!

I was supposed to run yesterday, but I was so exhausted I took a two hour nap instead

[juliahenry]

I have had a nasty cold or something for TEN DAYS. I've run once in that time, and then my symptoms got worse (and the was day 5! It was supposed to be getting better!)

Now I don't know whether I'm making excuses or whether I need to recover and take it easy. Also, my eating has gone to shit since I can't focus in exercise and I just feel sluglike and unhealthy,

Oh well, drs appt at 10:30.

That's a really good idea!!!

I was super prepared and excited to run my favorite 5k of the year yesterday.  The first 2 miles were a breeze and I had a really good pace going.  My bff had a huge fight with her husband the day before and she hadn't really prepared physically, so I stuck with her until the end.  She stopped for water twice and stopped to walk four times.  Not to mention, I had to be her cheerleader since she complained the entire time.

I really wanted to ditch her and go, but I felt bad.

I had a dream that my SIL beat me in a 5K race we are running next month because I got lost on the course. I run far more than she does (don't think that she has run 3 miles since her last 5K in October), and even though I encourage the hell out of her, I was pissssssed in the dream that she beat me. I am such a bad sport!

I never run with anyone during my races! Good for you for sticking by her, but I would not have wanted to stay together.

Totally.  I honestly felt like if I ran ahead, she would end up on the side of the road sobbing.

I haven't worked out at all this weekend. We were away and the hotel did have a small gym, but I decided to drink instead all weekend. Oh well.

[emuni04]

I didn't race on Sunday because my H poured me a "too generous" glass of red wine following a day full of wrangling a cranky baby and two birthday parties, and I was hungover
