Mileage: 3.1

Miles this month: 3.1

2008 Goal:  380.67/1000 miles

 

Thoughts/Comments:  Well I've learned enough in this running venture of mine to know that the first run after a break, self-imposed or just life getting in the way, pretty much sucks.  And this one was no different.  Legs felt like lead...walked twice.  Man!  One of the 10 commandments of running (um the ones that I'm making up starting today) is that "one bad run is simply one bad run, nothing more, nothing less."

 

Pretty hot out there too.  I wanted to run this morning, but that feat was impossible due to the diabolical Jada and Zoe, up from about 3:30am until 5:30am.  Don't ask.

 

Oh...and today officially marks my "marathon training" for the Chicago Marathon.  Woo hoo!

Early Risers

Geez Lindy, the girls were up really early, but hey, you still managed to get your run in 84 degrees no less.

Be and do well....

By you ran it anyway!

Woo Hoo! That is a win. Like you said, some runs just suck but that doesn't mean they will all suck. Good on you for getting it done!
