The two mid-week runs I have done this week have been awesome. When you are lying in bed, you're like "Oh! The wonders one more hour of sleep would do for me!" but then when you wake up an hour later you're like "That's it??? That's all?" (that's what she said, right?) But when you actually get up and go running, you have more energy than when you sleep for that extra hour--and you just feel like a badass. However, it's hard to remember that when you've been taking that extra hour of sleep for the past, oh, month and a half :0)
It is definitely easier to live the "runner's lifestyle" when you are actually running! I enjoy a few drinks as much as anyone (and maybe more), but I enjoy it a lot more after I've run. I like staying out late...but I also like not feeling like shit in the morning. Going to sleep early is hard sometimes (like on Friday nights), but it beats feeling like crap when the alarm goes off (like at 4:15 on Saturday mornings).
Anyway, so the race is a little more than 2 months away, and I feel like my running is strong. My fundraising, however, could use a bit of help. I am going to send out another email soon, so maybe people will realize that they will keep getting those emails until they support me!
4 miles yesterday, 4 miles today and rest (and moving) until Saturday's group run.
