The plan was to run 5 easy miles with Heidi and then 10 marathon pace miles on my own. Got up perfect running weather, a little windy but not too bad. Off we went. My legs felt like lead I couldn't get them to move Heidi's slow pace was killing me. I also had some tummy issues, just made it home in time! When we got back from our run I ate same toast it seemed to help but I wanted to wait for a hour to make sure. I laid down on my bed and JUST NOW WOKE UP!!! I slept from 6:30 until 9:30. Now it is snowing and I just don't want to run outside. Somebody kick me in the booty and get me out there...it will have to be a really hard kick!

It's not snowing anymore. Get your butt out there.

Don't listen to Andy. You don't want to go out in the cold and snow and do that mp pace run that will help you feel confident and ready to rock Boston no matter what the weather is. Just stay inside, be a bum, and skip that workout that you are so ready to rock. Why not have some ice cream and cookies while you're at it too.

Andy & Rhett ~ You boys are too funny!

So Kathie ~ did you go out for more? You must have needed that sleep. Pron8r once told me if there's a choice between an extra hour of sleep or an extra mile, he always takes the sleep.

Wanna run some mp miles on Sat. with me?

Nope didn't get out again Rhett almost convinced me but my legs are thrashed. I want to save them for the 20 on Saturday.

Kathie, you asked for someone to kick you in the booty and get you out there. I gave it my best shot, but in reality, I think you made a good call to rest. Make Saturdays run count, but don't overdo it. You will be just over 3 weeks out from your finest hour. Trust your training. It's been spot on.
