Hi friends,
This week marks the climax of this training program! Since May 15 my body, mind, and soul have been working up to this part of the training--20 miles on the schedule for this Saturday's run! wowza! So the mileage total for this week will be 40, which is substantial for me FOR SURE! :) I ran 5 today with my hippie friend NP--he rocked! Way to still be an enthusiastic story-teller while running! That's impressive! We ran 5 and just for good measure I kicked it up a notch the last 2.5 miles! I did mile 4 in 9:05 and mile 5 in 8:32! It felt good to be able to push my legs to go that fast! Fun times;)
Well, I'm going to head to rest my twitching eye--does that ever happen to you? Part of your eyelid just decides to spasmodically bounce all over the place while you're just chillin' watching Dreamgirls on the couch? I think its the signal to me that it's time to get a good solid night's sleep!! :)
Night all--tomorrow is 10 miles! :)
Always a pleasure Shelb. And fwiw (yup, acronym), I'm really more of a yuppie/hipster than a true hippie. For example, today I told a student that it was fine to kill and eat baby chickens because they aren't real animals anyway. Hardly hippie behavior (or scientific accuracy). I just like being subversive, argumentative, political, and well dressed. Also, I watched 2 episodes of "How I Met Your Mother" tonight. You should be proud. I have a pet TV show, which makes me a normal person now.
