I had the opportunity to get my 2 miles in first thing in the morning yesterday, due to a sick hubby (bad) and sleeping kids (good). When I opened the garage door to make my escape, I got a surprise--it was sprinkling! I have heard that training in the rain actually feels pretty good, so I figured I'd give it a whirl. I set the MP3 player to "random", hit play, and started warming up. The first song, I kid you not, was Chris Rice's "Smellin' Coffee," which made me smile, and every other song the little machine randomly played was just perfect for my mood or my "jalking" pace! In the cool rain I was able to complete my distance easier than I ever had before. Well, that and hating the "Fartlek" training the day before made an "easy" jalk so much more enjoyable! I got back to my house, and I felt great.
I'm hoping my 3-mile session tomorrow goes this well!
Until next time...
