What, WHAT??!! No running today!!!!

OMG!  I did NOT run today.  :(  The first run I've missed in a little over 10 weeks of training.  And I really almost went.  But my right thigh is just not feeling right so I decided that one day rest would be better than a week+ if I don't let it heal.  So today I missed a 5 mile run plus 8 hills i was supposed to do this afternoon.  I feel bad and I feel like I should make up those miles but I need to let it go.  We'll see.  I may run a little extra tomorrow if I'm feeling ok.

So, what did I do today if I didn't run?  Well ... I took back my awesome new pair of shoes and exchanged them for a different pair of equally awesome running shoes.  I decided they were just a little small in the toe box.  So I got some new ones a half a size bigger and a different color.  Still Nike LunarGlide+ 2.  I changed colors because I have more pink stuff than orange.  Here's a picture of the new shoes.

And I also played around with my new phone which included downloading some new apps.  And one of them is a photo app called Hipstamatic.  It's like a digital darkroom for your phone.  And it's soooo cool!!!  I played around with it while taking some pictures of the shoes.

And here are some dorky ones I took of myself.  It's not often you see me on this blog with makeup on and no running hat.  :)

Tomorrow's run is the regular 6 mile fartlek run I do every Friday.  I'm gonna try to just do that and forget the run and hills I missed today!!!  I just have to keep telling myself it's ok!  I don't wanna wear myself out because I have 18 miles again this Sunday.  Heal that leg, runner!!
