Resting the legs and not making excuses but results

28 Sep 2011 by Radioactive Runner, 2 Comments »

Can we talk about The Biggest Loser for a minute, please?

I LOVE THAT SHOW! The stories, the determination and the transformation are incredible. I always loved listening to Jillian Michaels and Bob in the gym and the way they worked their teams. I must say though that I am thoroughly enjoying the new trainers. They bring something different to the show. I feel bad for Anna Kournikova though because her team hasn’t been shining as much as the others which may make people question her ability to train. I don’t think it does though – in any way. It would be an amazing experience to train with her.

Dolvett on the other hand.. Oh my. Now, I would LOVE to train with him and no, not only because he does have a rocking body. I love his philosophy and hard @ss positive attitude in the gym. Don’t make excuses, make results! – I love that! When he was yelling that at his team during the last chance workout that really jumped out at me.

Speaking of working out, my runs have really been sucking lately. I haven’t had a good run since my awesome run on the country roads. What’s the deal?! My legs are tight, I can’t find my groove and at times the bottoms of my feet hurt. What would that be from… maybe I need a new pair of shoes? I didn’t run today to give the ol’ legs a break. Maybe they just need a rest.. that’s what I’m hoping. I did level 2 of Yoga Meltdown… man, what a good workout! I love that it’s a short but a heart racing workout with nothing needed other than your body (and maybe a mat for comfort).  As much as I love to run, changing it up a bit never hurts. Although, here’s hoping that I can lace up tomorrow and hit the pavement for a decent run!

What shoes do you run in? What’s your favourite brand?
~I have been running in Brooks Adrenaline GTS 10 and have loved them. I also really like Mizuno too.
