I am starting something new around here… Wednesday are now officially called “Inspirational Wednesdays”
Every Wednesday, I will post an inspirational quote that is, of course, running related. If you ever find one that you want to see on my blog, send it my way: ratherberunnin@hotmail.com
I completely agree with this! I’m on a running rest week. Only x-training and strength sessions with my trainer. Every day I ask myself if I should go out on a run and I debate it. Then I realize that I need to take this week off to prevent an injury and that although it’s hard now, it’ll be harder if I can’t run for months if I make it worse. Look forward to the posts!

I am so glad that this is helping you… I actually failed today in my run and ran WAY faster and a mile longer than I should have. Life is a learning experience, right?

That’s a great quote to start off with! I know that resting and recovery is as important as the exercise itself, and yet it is much harder for me to rest than get out for a run. Thanks for sharing!

I completely agree and I understand. I actually blogged yesterday (http://ratherberunnin.com/2013/04/02/tapering-into-insanity/) about how tough resting and especially tapering is for me. I am 100 percent there with you buddy.
