I've gotten the running bug back and hope I can continue to enjoy it. I think for now, my short-term goal is to NOT burn myself out. I am pro at doing that. I have a half and full marathon that I am planning on racing in a few months. I hope to be trained well enough to PR in both, but if not...I will enjoy the ride.

Under 1:30 half

3:15 marathon

I slept terrible last night. I really thought about calling Julie and telling her I wasn't coming but I decided I'd be mad at myself if I didn't. Met at SJP at 6:00 and ran all the way south in the wind then turned around and ran all the way north and turned back into the wind for the last little bit. Julie, Angela and Jody went 12 but I was back at my car at 10 1/2 so I called that good. I just didn't feel it today. I felt like I was running asleep half the time and the wind sucked. Overall pace 8:30.

You did great today! Somedays are just harder than others, but I have not idea how you guys do it with all your other workouts - I would be dead! Have a great weekend!

You guys are great that you can run that far in the cold and wind. Cold I can usually take (if it's not Too cold), wind I hate. Good job getting the run in.
