A Quickie

Ran 5 miles at one gym today, stopped home, went to other gym for run club, no one came, did another 3 on the tm there. Now that is a fun night.

See? I'm on a treadmill.

Monday Confessions

My car smells like a gym. A smelly gym, to be exact. It's probably because I keep all my shoes in it, but I'll never know for sure.

Here's the thing: I hate wearing shoes. I like driving in them even less. So, I walk barefoot to my car in the morning, drive barefoot to work, and then put on my shoes. This also makes in convenient for when I go to the gym right after work: my workout shoes and socks are already in the car, waiting for me to stink them up. Then they remain in the car, releasing their sweet stench to the best of their abilities.

I really don't notice the smell (if there is in fact a smell). But let's just say my husband calls my car The Stink Mobile for a reason.

These might smell better than my car.

At the Gym

I used to go to the gym a lot before getting in good enough shape to run long distances. Back then I was obsessed with Turbo Kickboxing, spinning, and the occasional weights class, and I feel like that's when I was in my best shape ever. Since I've been running more, though, I hardly ever do anything but spin maybe once a month if I'm lucky, and I definitely do not look or feel as good as I did when I mixed it up.

One month from today I will be heading back to Kauai for a vacation, and I'm really going to try to get back in to the classes groove.

What about you? Do you feel like your in better shape when you're mixing it up or when you're running miles and miles at a time?
