OK, I feel lame. I only did 2.5 miles. Actually it was a bit less but I'm gonna round up. I did however average a 10:30 min mile....but I'll save the celebration for when I average that pace on a distance further than this.
You know, if it is not Sat I can not get my lazy bum out of bed for a run. I went to bed early last night, set out my shoes, watch, reflective belt, iPod, etc. I had all intentions of waking up and running at 5AM. Instead I get up around 3AM, do some bathroom business, turn off my alarm and go back to bed.
I didn't hit the road tonight until 9:30 PM. I was pooped. I probably wouldn't have gone out except Prez will be looking at my training log to ensure I don't go more than 1 day between runs. I will get some razzing for the whopping 26ish minutes of running.
I will however be taking the next two days off. Call it my taper before the race on Sunday. I'm not worried about finishing 34 miles...I'll get there eventually. However, a friend will be there and I have to look strong as I run the race....even if it kills me. Dang Pride. |
