Happy National Running Day


Actually, I RUN because it feels great when I’m done!

And it did today….I squeezed  in 3 miles before work and 2 miles before yoga & after work.

In honor of National Running Day, let’s talk “running.” (questions borrowed from Sweat Once a Day)

1. What is your favorite distance to run?

For me, it’s definitely the 5K and I have run about 50 in 3 years!! There are so many of them to choose from. They’re easy to train for.  They don’t take a lot of time to run.

Mother's Day 5k Race '11

2. What is the best race you ever did?

 I would have to say that it was the Naples Daily News Half Marathon.  The weather and the scenery were awesome and it was my lst half which I never thought I could do. I also like running in the Freihofer’s Run for Women.  It’s a BIG local race and I always envied women that ran it and now I can!

3. What is your favorite running attire?

My clothes have to be color coordinated (and if possible, the same brand).  That’s very important.  I like running skirts (and need to get more.)

4. What is your favorite running gear?

I can’t believe I ran for so long without one. It’s my Garmin!!  I got it for my first half marathon.

5. Biggest Running Accomplishment Ever?

That’s easy – finishing my first half marathon and finishing my 2nd (rainy, cold) half marathon.

6. Favorite thing to eat after a run?

I have a big sweet tooth.  Donuts or cupcakes or ice cream!!

 

Happy Running!  Did you run today?
