| Oh my gosh, I felt awesome this morning. It was like someone wound me up tight as a spring, and then let me go. I ran 8:18 as my average pace for the seven miles. Seven hilly miles. For me, that's really fast. I just felt like I wanted to run fast - - which is not usually the way I feel. But the weather was slightly cooler, and I just was feeling it. Such a contrast from Friday's run where I felt like a slug!!! This week, I'm going to try to run seven miles each day . . .though I'm already worried about Friday because after a long run of 14, I sort of wonder where I'll find the oomph to run 7. |

| 8:46 pace this morning - -my goal marathon pace essentially. Felt reasonably good, but not like yesterday. AGAIN managed to somehow plan a run that was just a tad shorter than it needed to be so I had to run past my house. Must stop doing that!! |

| Well, today I had to run on the dreadmill because of lightning. It went well. I did most of the miles at 9:15 - - and a few that were faster. Frankly, I really, really, really don't like the treadmill so psychologically, these miles were a lot harder for me than my runs usually would be. But my legs felt good so that was a plus. |

| Ok, this is the first marathon training day that really didn't go the way I had planned. I woke up and my stomach was killing me. That's pretty unusual for me. So I kinda procrastinated on my running - - which usually I try to do first thing in the am. And honestly, I was a little afraid to leave my house because of the pain. I didn't want to run 4 miles and end up far away from home and vomiting or anything else that comes with a stomach problem. So finally, I decided to just give the treadmill another try. Ugh. I ran two slow miles. Then, eeked out another slow mile. Then I had to sit and rest. My stomach really wasn't sooo bad. But my legs just felt sore and tired and blech, and then combining that with the boring treadmill and the stomach -- I just didn't have the mental oomph. I did five miles and called it a day. Disappointing. |

| Got my long run in, and frankly even surprised myself after feeling so under the weather yesterday. I just do a LOT better running outside than on a treadmill. I don't like the feeling of the treadmill, never mind the boredom. The first mile today wasn't so great. Dog had to pee. I had to pee. Dog had to pee. Wore a shell and was broiling. Took off shell and somehow managed to pull out some very long elastic string out of it. Which dangled and annoyed the heck out of me. So I had to stop and try to wind it up and knot it. But once I got all the annoyances out of the way, the next 12 miles went well. The last mile - - well for me, the last mile is always up this pretty long hill, so it's never fun. But it really is the only way to get back to my house! I trudged up it. Overall, did 9:30's. Nothing to brag about, but that's how I was feeling today. I'm taking Sasha's advice and RESTING tomorrow. |

| Today was a nice slow trail run with friends (12:12 pace). I do this loop quite often, and it is super hilly, but with my friends we just chat the whole way, and it makes the whole thing much more enjoyable. Trail running really is my favorite, but I don't like the extra time it takes me to get it done. |
