At the end I was a big sweaty mess. I ran on the treadmill because it was much cooler in the gym than outdoors, but it was still very muggy. This is a good 15 minutes after my cool down. Right after my run I had so much sweat dripping from my eyes, I looked like I was crying.
Half way through my run I thought, gee, my feet have been awfully sore lately. Since I haven't been doing a ton of running this kind of surprised me. Then I thought .... DUH ... I have at least 500 running miles on my shoes, not to mention walking/cycling and the odd fitness class.
So, I decided it was time to break out the back-up pair I've been storing in my closet. Ahhhhhhhhhh, what a difference! As soon as I put them on I knew the old one's were shot. The second half of my run felt SO good, at least for my feet/legs, otherwise it was pure hell. I'll have to switch these new one's out a little sooner I think.
Just a little difference here
While I was running, I had these babies rising
Cinnamon buns - from scratch! I had a small one after my run. Not bad. Way too sweet for me though. I'm going to seek out a different recipe and probably skip the icing next time. My friend's husband makes the most amazing cinnamon buns ... and without a recipe. They turn out huge and fluffy every single time, but he just throws a bunch of stuff together and never measures a thing. That man has a serious talent!
Tonight I have an easy run scheduled. Kind of looking forward to that. Not sure when I'm going to squeeze it in. May have to be late. We're planning to go watch the opening ceremonies for the summer games tonight and I just found out my cousins daughter is in the games as well, so maybe we'll see her there.
Have a great evening
Keep Active!

Way to go on the run! You look great!
I can tell a huge difference in my running when my shoes begin to wear down.
Yumo yum! Those cinnamon buns look amazing!
For someone who has just finished a run...YOU LOOK SMASHING!!
our gym has no aircon, so only outdoor running in the heat for me..its okay as the cold weather will be here before I know it and treadmill and I will become friends again. :(
What a difference in the running shoes!!!
Love the new shoes! The difference is incredible.
Pioneer Woman has a recipe for apparently the best cinnamon rolls ever. I've never made them, but they sure look tasty.
Have fun at opening ceremonies. Sounds like fun!
Yay for new shoes. I love pulling new shoes out and taking them for their first run. I'm glad they made a difference for you. You look amazing for just running so hard. The rolls look great!
Sounds like a fun way to mix up the workouts. Way to go!
MMM, cinnamon buns!!!
I was noticing some pain on the top part of my foot yesterday, I wonder if it's the shoes...hm, good reason to go shopping! Your cinnamon buns look amazing...my mom's oldest sister hoards my grandmother's recipe...I'll have to get it from her sometime!!!
Hi Heidi,
Nice job on your 3 miler! I suck at the whole negative split thing. I always want to start out faster than I should and then end up having a slow death at the end:)
That is an awesome picture of you and I don't think that you look like a big sweaty mess!
I always know when it is time to purchase new shoes. My feet scream..."I want a new pair of Asics...go purchase a new pair of Asics!" The thing that sucks is that I am getting new shoes every two and a half to three weeks! I hope that you have had a great week. Thank God it is Friday tomorrow:)
Good job on the run! I make cinnamon rolls and I tried to cut the butter in half and man did my family protest!
aaahhhh!! i love that feeling, new shoes are GREAT!!! :)
awesome job on talking yourself through your run, I did the same thing tonight!!
Great work heidi! It's hard breaking up with a pair of shoes isn't it!
Buns look awesome!
You definitely deserved new shoes if I see the two next to each other. I've bought new ones recently and noticed also immediately a difference.
You look great to me! You should she me after a run: I look like a tomato for at least 1 hour :)
Great job on the run!
I love new shoes, but I always feel nostalgic as I put the new ones to rest. Sounds cheesy, but they are just so worn in when you get retire them. The newbies are stiff and bright white. I like a little dirt on my kicks!
