5/18
Accidentally did the wrong run and my pedometer is broke. Yesterday I tried to run but couldn't because I had on too many sports bras on so I couldn't breath... Because I couldn't breath I got stomach cramps from HELL!!!! Then I had to pee. Haha pretty shitty. So I ran this morning and it was MUCH better! Tomorrow I'm skipping  week 3 day 2 and doing 3.3 since I don't htink 30 seconds makes a difference. (This is based on how easy my run was and hopefully by 4 I won't die).
The RUN!
I ran at 10-10:15. It was pretty easy. I added some music, which made the run easier. I figured out if I do get cramps that if I breath in for three and out for three it goes away after a bit. Also the boy ordered me an armband so I don't have to carry around my phone anymore! On a random note, I found an old picture of myself and I was soooooo much bigger! Yikes!

Short entry today. Sorry its been a while, I've been reading a bunch (The Shining by Stephen King, if you haven't read it you should!). I took a little three day break from running because it's been so hot here and it hadn't rained in forever, but I finally cowgirled up and ran.
Instead of a running tip today I decided to talk about a running "problem": Chaffing. Gross? Yes. Sucks? YES! I have thunder thighs of doom! They have gotten smaller since I started running, but they still rub like it's no one's business. Nothing is worse than getting half way through your run and your legs start chaffing so bad they bleed a little... It's soooooooo gross! Obvious solution is to wear longer shorts... But nothing feels better than wearing the shortest pair of running shorts I can get a hold of! This presents two problems: chaffing, as mentioned earlier, and me looking pretty unflattering. So far I've not really figured out any solutions, however I think once I get a chance I'm going to pick up some body glide and until then try petroleum jelly. We shall see!
