I have been frustrated, feeling like i don't have enought time to run, i hate that feeling, I get so grumpy.
On our trip to Tampa, we hashed with the crew there, it felt so good to run at sea level, I was First B*#$h In!
I went to the gym (for the first time in forever!) yesterday, hopped on the treadmil, ran a 6:43 min mile, it felt good. Then a leg work out, which did not feel so good (but that's the point, right?).
I swam a mile this morning, cross training seems to be a better idea than I gave it credit for...It wasn't easy, I'd rather run 10 miles than swim one... so I will!
I ran home from work today (4.6 mi), my co-workers thought I was crazy... maybe I was, it was so hot (97 degrees to be exact)! And that sun was ruthless. My thighs started cramping in the 3rd mile, but I had defeated the hills already, so I walked the 1.5 remaining miles home, only because I have the 8k Oktoberfest Race tomorrow.
Not so sure I am ready for this Army 10 Miler coming up soon (FORTY FOUR DAYS!!!). I have a lot of mileage to pack in before then, I'm going to push my hardest.
The Ft Bliss Marathon is Nov 3, I am going to register for it, but it is 5 short days after the Marine Corps Marathon (gasp!).
I found a journalist with similar ideas and have been following her, http://running.competitor.com/2012/01/boston-marathon/out-there-boston-or-bust_45730
That's all, time for beer.
On-on.
