Pure Torture


I didn't do anything this weekend...probably because I have had some personal things going on that kept me curled up in a ball and not wanting to deal with reality. Since I knew Belle wouldn't be able to call me with a "pep-talk" early morning phone call on Monday, I had my fiance do it. He works at Starbucks and often opens the store early...so I knew it would work. Well....not so much. He called, I answered, then went back to sleep. So after a long day on Monday, I came home and did a quick Biggest Loser "Power Sculpt" workout. (Love you Bob and Jillian!!)


Today I woke up on my own (praise God!) and headed out the door to greet the chilly crisp fall air that felt great. I started my ipod to get going....and it said "No battery power remains. Please connect ipod to power." Then it started playing "Gold Digger." I thought, "Sweet, its going to give me a little juice to get started." Nope, it stopped before I even started running. So there I am, running with an ipod in tow...but no music. I thought about singing to myself, but that quickly ended when I started hearing myself breathe. I thought, "Oh, I'll listen to the rustling of the fall leaves...but wait, I can't hear them over myself BREATHING!" What torture! The whole run sucked, needless to say. I did run 3.1 miles....so be proud of me for that.
