Post-race, keeping up my regiment is not quite as easy. I have less drive to run long distances, and am much more likely to call it a rest day and not workout at all. And these 2 pounds that I seemed to have a never-ending tug of war with are tending to appear more and more consistently on the scale each day.
So, to get out of my funk I went to a Burn 60 class last night. I hadn't been in a while because of my focus on distance running...I fell in love again. It's just the most incredible class, and a great workout. I'm back on track - with a positive outlook, and an outlet to focus on again.
I simply need to reframe and adjust what I'm doing - no more "long distance runs," but shorter runs in the neighborhood, longer runs on trails with my dog, and Burn 60 classes here and there to get my arm workout in (my arms died last night!)
If anyone is looking for a great workout, I cannot speak highly enough about Burn 60. You'll leave feeling like a train wreck but in a fit, healthy sort of way :) Here is the website: burn60.com. Go to the schedule on the tabs at the top to find a time that works for you, and just show up 15 minutes early to get a spot. If you'd like a partner, I'd love to go with you!
