This happens to me after I work out particularly hard or do a workout that I don't usually do. For instance, I tried the Biggest Loser Cardio Max workout (a few painful weeks ago) and, by the end, thought I was going to drop right there and die, seriously it is crazy hard. I'm in

Have a great day y'all! Thanks so much for stopping by, blessings and hugs!
How are you doing this week?
Any races you did or are training for?
Are you in The A-Z Challenge?
If so how is it going for you?
Godspeed...this comes from the Middle English expression "God spede (you)", a wish for success and fortune for one setting out on an enterprise, voyage, adventure, or travels. It may also mean good luck.

I know I looked like that during my last half. Yes I am doing the challenge & am not really training right now and that feels good.
ReplyDeleteThat is what I am sure I'll look like during my half
Delete"Limitations only exist if you let them"
ReplyDeleteLove that line!
when I used to lift, regularly, I'd always be a little sore two days later...not sure why. I never overexerted (at least, I didn't think so), but I'd feel that twinge of soreness.
Strangely enough, I didn't mind it. It told me that I was getting results.
It is a great line...Blessings
DeleteI have found in my case what works the best to delay any muscle cramps or soreness is to delay running. :)
ReplyDeletelol, too funny Gregg
DeleteThose buzzards are why I jog indoors on a treadmill.
ReplyDeleteAlex, I have been chased by birds a time or two...well maybe not chased but dive bombed for sure
DeleteI really enjoyed reading this post! I'm glad to follow :). I have "considered" several times taking up running (even though I am 31). This inspires me!
ReplyDeleteMelody, thanks so much sweetie!
DeleteI have a 10k Sunday, but have been resting after my super-fast 5k last Saturday. I was going to run tonight, but we have a storm coming in and tornado warnings so...Yeah, we'll see :o)
ReplyDeleteGood luck girl...stay safe
DeleteI hate speed work! I wish it was warmer here to get out and do some outdoor training. My first 5K of the season will be the Electric Run on May 31st. I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome about your 5k...good luck and I don't really like speed work either...
DeleteAnd that is why I love my ice pack and my wonderful heating pad. :D
ReplyDeleteYes...ice and heat are my BFF's
DeleteI am not a runner, never had cancer, but am in my 40's and love sports and am not a quitter... I experienced some of the pain you talk of after a game of badminton last week...I am very unfit... but most of all I really enjoyed the positive message in this post - and the positive energy oozing out of the blog. Glad I found you - happy A-zing
ReplyDeleteThanks so very much Ida...whether your a runner or not doesn't matter all are welcome...blessings and glad to meet you
DeleteI'm doing the A to Z Challenge, I'm not a runner, do lots of walking when I can, I have back issues, but do remember what it feels like to have sore muscles. A massage always works for me!
ReplyDeleteLove your cartoon, am showing it to friends who run, they will definitely identify with it.
Have a great weekend -
Maria, massage is always a good thing when it comes to sore muscles...thanks so much for stopping by sweetie
DeleteShannon, I remember it was your blog that I first heard about the A-Z challenge. This year I decided I couldn't keep up the pace to join again but wishing you and the rest of the participants all the best.
