felt so good hitting the Central Park loop again after a week of recovery/slacking off. the only drawbacks of a Sunday afternoon run in April are the blossom petals falling like rain and hitting you in the face (and also the pollen), and the throngs of tourists who turned the path into an obstacle course at times. good times nonetheless. time to find some running shorts for warm weather runs.
view of the Upper West Side on a gorgeous spring day {NYC, 03.17.12}. it’s official. i’ve become one of those people who runs in Central Park. 6.42 miles run/walk (about 4 run/2.42 walk) = i’m in better shape than i thought i was. also, no feet/leg pain means the Brooks were a good purchase. furthermore, nobody tells you this, but there are a ton of hotties that run in the park. yes, that little fact will help keep me running. and yes, i am that shallow.
i do the “right” kind of sit ups during my workouts, but dayum—consciously making an effort to press your lower back into the mat makes a HUGE difference. thanks, Bob Harper!
