"Its supposed to be hard.  If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it.  The hard...is what makes it great."

 

I'll keep running....
Because it gives me perspective.
Now I realize my problems aren't so big.
My life is pretty great afterall.
And a mile is a lot longer than it seems in the car.

Personal:

 I work in a biomedical lab to support my volleyball, traveling, and now running addictions.

Still feeling icky but really wanted to run.  The weather is scarily warm for January in Boston...mid 50s but it is raining like crazy so I did the treadmill.  5 miles at 8:13 pace then went from 7:47 pace to 6:40 pace for the last .35 miles.

My body finally gave in to getting sick.  It fought it off and fought it off but now it's here and with just 9 days until the marathon...fooey!  I've been feeling it coming on strong since early this week so I tried to rest....now it's just me, a bag of oranges, and decongestant pills.

Went to volleyball tonight anyway because it's hard to skip out when the team is only 4 people... played 5 25 minute matches and worked pretty darn hard!  I tried to pretend I was olympic training in Denver since I wasn't getting much oxygen with this stuffy nose!

Ran on the treadmill at the gym during the Pats game.  7 miles close to marathon pace (8:13) then 1.5 miles at 6% incline at 15:00 pace because the game wasn't over yet!  GO PATS!!
