Phew!! What a marathon today. I'm so glad that I usually run all of these miles. It's much faster. I had a side stitch that literally felt like a knife in my side..lovely...I know... The faster I went the deeper the pain was. I resorted to running really slow and walking a little bit. 1 mile I walked straight because Jacob had already been awake for a long time and I felt bad for him sitting and reading in his bed by himself. So I stuck him in the stroller until Sasha came home. Unfortunately I can' t push a stroller and run while pregnant...I'm not in shape for that...so that mile I had to walk the whole thing.
It wasn't exactly a pregnancy related pain...more gastrointestinal but exaggerated pain because of my stretched out stomach. I felt like I got my energy for the day. If I don't exercise enough I've noticed a severe lack of motivation. I may feel rested but I just don't feel like doing anything. If I get most of all of my run in I feel energized and ready to conquer the world....or at least the playroom and the kitchen. :) |
