Love it....but Hate it!

I wanted to post Sat. & then again on Sun. but, truth is ..... I just didn't have it in me to do so. I'm sure my post then would have been a lot more entertaining bc I felt I had a lot more to say those days. Mostlly, because my body was still in shock due to what I had put it through. But since that didn't happen I'll begin here..... I started some pretty intense training on Sat & then again on Sun. M.O. is my training partne!. I've decided and have shared with her that we will probably have a love/hate friendship for the next 5 month simply because I love that she pushes me but hate that I hurt so much at the end of the training. But that's cool with me because she is exactly what I need to get going with this! Of course I wanted to quit both days... long before she did but, I don't like to be the quitter so when asked if I wanted to keep going....of course I replied let's do it. So, we trained hard for 4. something miles up and down hills in the forest preserve starting at 7am. It was already over 70 degrees out...but that I was able to deal with. The real shocker is probably that I was up and out there by 7am & for the record...I have a nice .50 cent size blister on my right inner heel to prove I was out there. OUCH! Today was my rest day from training which my body definetly needed....it's still incredibly sore so tomorrow should be interesting.
