My husband might have given up...at least he did today. I have to say, I am proud of myself for still doing the run. I had thoughts like "you could do it after work, you don't have any major plans..." ha!
But, I did it. A 6 mile run. I split it up and ran the first mile with my dog ( in case husband changed his mind by the time I came back) and then did a 5 mile run. Splitting it up made me a teeny tiny bit late for work, but that is ok. I actually felt great for this run. I woke up stiff and a little sore, not sure why, maybe from Sunday's cross training? Or maybe I ran hunched over yesterday, I am not sure...but by the time I started running I felt really good.
My splits were about 20 seconds faster than they have been and I felt great during it! In order to get the time I want I need to drop 20 more seconds which I think is totally reasonable because I think the lack of speed mostly comes from my lack of coordination with my toe shoes... Once I get that down I will be back where I was at least with my regular running shoes, which is about a minute faster than my expected marathon mile time.
Anyway, I woke up for another run and I am happy about it! Tomorrow is a 3 mile run...husband is supposed to get up and do it with me, we'll see :) Ciao!
