So...I messed up a bit this week.
Here's the deal. I was sick all week, and since I work with children and have this weird thing where I hate taking sick days unless I absolutely have to, I spent all of my free time taking cold medicine and sleeping. Marathon training became temporarily nonexistent. The good news is that by the end of the week I felt much better (thanks for asking), and ready to pick up where I left off...which brings us to tonight.
I planned on running my 12 mile run yesterday, but was quickly talked out of it when I got a better offer. I then briefly considered running this morning before church, but it was far too early. So I made plans to run with friends after church...well, after church and after (dun dun dun) the Indian Buffet. Oops. Though the run took place a full 5 hours after our feast, the food was not to be forgotten. The good part was that I ran with two awesome people (yay Rachel and Mike) and the conversation throughout the run made me forget that I was in the midst of running 12 miles. The bad part was the haunting presence of the Indian Buffet. Oh yeah, and the fact that my body now hates me for doing zero physical activity all week and then running 12 miles.
From now on, we will be going out to eat after our runs. Life lesson learned.
76 days to go.
