Thoughts/Comments: I don't even know what to tell you, as this was 3 days ago and I'm not trying to bring up all the bad feelings again. I was out there. I was tired. My knee was stiff. ANd then that little voice in my head rationalized "you don't have to run 12 miles this week when you're running 13 at the end of the week. You ran 10, you can push it to run 13 on Sunday." So I just quit. I know. I suck.
The rest of the week has been a whirlwind. Tuesday work, with an RFP interview. Wednesday we kicked off a project in Dubuque Iowa. I left at 4am and didn't get home until 9pm. Then yesterday was busy, including an impromptu RFP interview downtown (I was originally supposed to be off Thurs and Fri). Also yesterday, we had two appointments at the girls' respective schools. On top of that, I baked 80 cookies for a baby shower. Yes, 80. (Insane)
I'm beat. Gotta run at some point today, as well as decorate the cookies. And get the girls school supplies, etc...
So that's what's been up with me! And my so-called running.
