Today’s Run: \u00a0Rest Day<\/p>\n
Today is a rest day. \u00a0YAY! \u00a0It used to be that “Rest Day” was the most dreaded day of the week on my training schedule. \u00a0An entire day of nothingness…unless you count housework, cooking, looking after the animals, etc. as nothingness.<\/p>\n
Running is a major component of my life right now. \u00a0The training for the marathon seems to encompass every waking moment. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Because both my husband and myself are bone weary from running but there is always more miles to do.<\/p>\n
Do not get me wrong. \u00a0That was not a complaint! \u00a0I have loved every minute of this training!!! \u00a0But 30+ miles per week and neither one of us are spring chickens any more…it just takes it toll. \u00a0Why, one day this week, I even slept in until 6:00 am! \u00a0I NEVER to that! \u00a0So, yes, we are a little tired.<\/p>\n
So, what is going well? \u00a0Everything!<\/p>\n
Our mileage is pretty close to it’s peak and we are still standing. \u00a0I consider that “Doing Well”.<\/p>\n
I am now state rep for a running group online. \u00a0That is considered “Doing Well”.<\/p>\n
The kids are doing great in their chosen activities~I definitely consider that a success for them.<\/p>\n
The chickens are laying well. \u00a0The cats are cats so I do not know what you would call that~and the dog pretty much sleeps through the night without bothering us. \u00a0All is well!<\/p>\n
So, all we have to do is stay on our feet, train for nine more weeks, run 26.2 miles and then rest a well earned rest. \u00a0Sounds great to me!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
