The streak lives on! I am happy to announce I am 19 for 19 on running days in December! And I feel AWESOME!
My runs have ranged from 2 hours on the trails to 10 minutes off the bike, but I have laced up my trusty Mizunos every single day this month. And I’ve definitely noticed some changes.
First, I don’t even consider skipping or postponing a workout. I can’t fathom breaking the streak. My whole mindset on “running off the bike” has changed. In the past, transition runs were not my favorite. I always felt like once I was off the bike, I was done, and I didn’t really want to slog through a post-ride run, no matter how short or easy it was. But now, these runs help me keep the streak alive, so I love them!
And I think I love my transition runs because my running feels better than ever! It seems like running consistently has actually made running easier. Looking back on my swimming days, skipping a day, or even just one practice, always left me feeling like I was moving backwards once I returned to the pool. I guess it makes sense running might be the same.
Whatever it is, I’m loving my 31 days of Christmas. And speaking of Christmas, check out this tee my friend Beth gave me:
Hahhaahha. I love it, and I don’t even work retail. Happy Holidays!
