Nice legs.

First off... my doctor's appointment went fine. I won't get the results for a week or so, hence I have decided to not think about it. Thank you, Nallie, for giving me a ring. But until I get the results (which cross your fingers are normal) I can't do much of anything. End of story.

Secondly, last week I had posted about my boyfriend Josh noticing that my body was changing. Well today, for the first time, I noticed it was changing. As I put on my new bright orange Nike Tempo running shorts (the cadillac of running shorts), I noticed my legs were slimming down and getting back to their normal muscular look. The past 2-3 months they hadn't had that. But now I'm seeing definition.

And I'm freaking stoked about it.

Yesterday I was supposed to do 8 miles but at my 3 mile mark my IT band started acting up. I ran another 1/4 of a mile and called it quits. No use straining it. So today I rode the bike, did my IT band exercises, and a short core workout. It all felt pretty good until my last 3 wall sits. Wow. Those were painful. But honestly are probably what is giving me leg definition.

Since I didn't get a long run in last week I just readjusted my schedule.
This weekend: 8 miles
Next weekend: 10 miles
Weekend after that: 12 miles

Hopefully it begins to warm up so I can do these runs outside. My new iPod is on its way and screw Punxatawny Phil and his stupid shadow. I'll be training outdoors before you know it. With my nice new legs carrying me along the way.
