Runlates and Stink.

I took the weekend off running and was back at it last night!  It was really interesting to see that my body was wanting to push already... go faster... generally a quicker pace.  So I ran at a little bit of a higher pace overall and sweated my FACE off at the gym.  I got the treadmill right beside the water fountain at my gym... so I had a pretty constant stream of visitors taking a wee sip of water.  Can I just say... I thought I was reeking.  Seriously.  I thought my BO was so bad because i kept smelling something.  Then... the gym kind of cleared out while I was still running (not because of my stench) and I realized that it wasn't me.  It was the burly men who kept getting water.  

Dear burly men -  it's not cool to stink like that!  Go get some prescription deodorant!  You made me run with my arms pressed down at my sides.  Which was probably pretty amusing to look at but I was worrying about stinking up your space the whole time... and it was allll yooou burly burly stinky men.  I feel better now.

So I ran for about 67 minutes only slowing the pace down to get water (not at the fountain beside me but from the water bottle i had with me.)   I finished my gym night off with a pilates class!  SO all in all a pretty awesome body loving day for this (not stinky) girly.

Today......... i have the day off with a meeting for work tonight.  SO I am baking my tushy off.  Lots and lots of baking goodness for my starbuckers tonight.  Maybe laundry.  We'll see how it goes.  Based on the discussions of this blog... i should probably do my laundry as I am anti stink.  

Side unrelated note - I LOVE 'The Last 10 Pounds Bootcamp' and 'Bulging Brides'.  I want Tommy Europe to be my trainer.  What a good background to my bake fest.
