Again, I'm exhausted but will keep putting something here. I can't say this enough, thanks to all the wonderful people who ask me how it is going, how many miles have I completed, am I still on pace, etc. I truly need all the help I can get to keep this momentum going. Today I ran 7.64 miles in about 73 minutes + and it went ok. Still nursing the hamstrings & knees are beginning to feel it a bit too.
I will be taking tomorrow off as I drive to Vegas for our annual fantasy baseball draft. I need to start flying as the time issue is not good but I always forget to book a ticket in time! Hope to run The Strip on Sat am and then going to have brunch with my parents and my brother Gary & his wife Beth. Not sure if my niece Brittany will be there or not.
Today, I have another quote for you to ponder. This one is from David Bly. I liked it because from the outside, this might not seem too difficult of a task, but as I am not a "runner" per say, I leave you with this:
"Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven't planted"
I would change that for my students saying it is like trying to get an A on the test without reading the book! Good night and have a great weekend! Not sure when my next post will be but I can't wait to see my folks!!! The King is down below if you need your fix!
Total miles: 435.26 Pace Runner: 412.30
Love you Mom & Dad! <3
