I still think it’s utterly ridiculous to be sore from gardening when I’m not sore from a 50 mile bike ride! How did this happen?
*Not My Pic
Since my hamstrings are still feeling tight, I took it easy on my lunchtime run today. Ironically, my hamstrings didn’t hurt during my run. I still took it pretty slow. I did, however, have a pain in my side. That has been happening frequently and I have no idea WHAT it is or why I get it! Any ideas? Suggestions?
I made the lunchtime run without having to walk at all.
Today’s Stats:
Time: 35:15
Calories Burned: 415
Nike+ Pace: 9’42”
Checking in on my May Goals:
I used sunscreen–even though it was overcast. CHECK!
I drank a lot of water before the run. CHECK!
I stretched when I got back to work (especially my hammies!). CHECK!
I think I can successfully say that the “Low Carb” eating plan is done. The idea of it just annoys me at this point, and if I really want to do something, I DO it and I really DON’T want to do it. And honestly, what REALLY sounds good to me is a tall, cold one of these:
Question: What is your favorite Adult Beverage?
Ivie
My favorite adult drink…..do I only get to chose one? I’m a girl who likes beer (especially Belgium) and whiskey, and my half Mexican side cannot turn down a margarita!

I know, I can’t choose just one. I’d say WINE, VODKA, and BEER in that order. š
Lori (Finding Radiance)
Gardening does the same exact thing to me! No matter how much I lift, bike or run, gardening gets my hamstrings every time.
Favorite adult beverages would be handcrafted beer and an amaretto sour.

Yikes! How long did the hamstring soreness last?
Kellie
I like white wine. I only drink it if we go out to dinner, but I do love a good glass of wine.
Slowly But Surely
You’re probably sore because your muscles were moving in a DIFFERENT way that how you’ve trained them – I think that’s a good thing! š
My favorite adult beverage is definitely any kind of Hefewiesen – I’m sooo weak and can’t pass them up! š

Have you been to Hopworks yet? They have good beer!
Jackie (Peaces of Earth)
Do you have a foam roller? It is painful, yet magical. Works those hammies so good! And calves, IT band…the list goes on š
I’ve been getting side pains lately too when running. It’s hard to say why…sometimes it’s because I drank/ate too close to running, other times it’s because I didn’t hydrate enough during the day.

I do have a Foam Roller and boy does it make a difference!
Kristen
Midori Sour is my adult beverage weakness. *sigh*

Margarita is my favorite but Reisling is a second actually I bounce back and forth š

I change my preference according to the season. Summer is usually white wine/Riesling or beer.
