Rest day?

I had a rest day scheduled for today, which was supposed to include some moderate activity, so I took the dog for a little over a half-hour walk this morning. It is still pretty cold here, below freezing this morning. However, after doing this my fiance and I went furniture and Christmas shopping. After walking at least two more miles and hauling furniture around I do not feel as rested as I would have liked.

I definitely felt the after-effects of the run this morning, my quads, and really my legs in general, were pretty weak last night and this morning, and were slightly sore as well. It was really the right amount of sore... enough to be gone by tomorrow, but enough to let me know that I stopped at just the right point the days before.

What I Did:
35 minute walk
Christmas and Furniture shopping

Total time: All stinkin' day... but seriously pretty much 40 minutes with warm up and cool down.

How I Felt:
Sore, tired, grumpy, and with a scratchy throat. Also cold. If I'm going to have a miserable day, it at least ought to be a rest day, right?

Bring on Tomorrow!
