FAQs

At least once a day, Lynndi Lauper and Doctor nln ask each other this question. But it's really code for 'share your workout plan'. And if there is no workout plan, the convo gets even more supercharged as it turns to special topics like injuries, therapies, out of town guests, extensive travel requirements of the gig, or exhaustion. And the other most FAQ is "What are you eating for dinner?" Doctor nln and Lynndi have so much combined knowledge that blogging it was inevitable.

Witness as we beat ourselves up with hideous workout plans and then gorge on lemon heads and sugar free ice cream.

Just like James Brown...

..."I feel good!"

I had a really nice run today. It was on the treadmill, but it just felt good. I read an article in Runner's World magazine. And the author made a suggestion about "running the mile you are in." In other words, don't worry about how much further you have to go. Just enjoy where you are right now. Turns out, that philosophy works really well for me--it also transcends running and it a good metaphor for life--but enough waxing philosophical, back to the workout! I didn't get on the treadmill thinking "I have to run 6 miles." I simply thought "this is mile 1." With each completed mile I felt better and better...and before I knew it, 6 miles were done!

I had a really busy day today, as Monday's tend to be. 27 patients (and not a single no-show) so I went into this run slightly mentally fatigued. AFTER the run I felt fantastic and did a bit of core work. Those "penguins" kill my abs but hopefully are making them stronger!
What did you do tonight???
