I *heart* good runs!

Last night was a good night at the gym.  I love having nights like that.  I got through my shoulders and tri's workout rather quickly and felt the burn, baby!  Pushed out some leg press...and for the record, the weight I had on the leg press was the same as some of the annoying boys in the gym last week...small victory for me!  
Then, I had a good run.  Well...that was, of course, after I knocked my stupid phone off when I caught the cord with my arm swing.  The phone flew off the treadmill and almost hit a lady. You could see in her face that she felt bad for me looking ridiculous...I hurdle-jumped to avoid stepping on my phone and then almost fell off because I stepped wrong while the treadmill was slowing down all while trying to grab my phone from her...AND end scene.  That was only 1/2 mile into my run, so I jumped back on and cranked up the speed without my music because apparently, I flail my arms when I run like a maniac, and I finished out my 4 miles.  I lost some time with the slowing down, grabbing phone and speeding up and I finished in 36 minutes.  The run felt good.  I've had trouble with good runs lately, but I had one Sunday and yesterday, so hopefully we're on a roll!

Yikes! I hate when my cell falls while I'm running the treadmill, it's totally happened to me before.

Glad you got in a good one though!

Haha, I ALWAYS have issues with my iPod!...I think it's a combination of my headphones falling out and my arms whacking the cord! lol I usually end up giving up on them...lol

Haha! I have flailing arms myself, but I usually knock that safety cord thing off and the treadmill cuts off and I have to start again - so frustrating! Glad you finished your run even after your mishap :)
