May 17th, Thursday

I am falling behind on my blog posts but not on my running! :)  I would be more depressed if it were the other way around!  Today I did a very short run, 4.8 miles on the east 56 bike path to just get something in as it was my 7th day running in a row.  The good thing is that I broke the 800 mile mark!  Plan to take tomorrow off for some much needed body repair & I also have a trip to the chiropractor (Murphy Frasier :) to help in that process.

Can't say that I will get caught up on sleep as that never seems to happen, even on the weekend, but I hope to at least get some things done.  I can't wait for the school year to end so that I can actually find some time to sleep before I get sick again!  I just keep having things pop up in my calendar.

All I can do is persevere.  Because if I can do that, I will eventually reach my goal.  I will leave you with a quote I like on this topic.  I actually have found many but I have many more posts to make in the future so I will spread them out!


"People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success because they don't know when to quit. Most men succeed because they are determined to." ~ George E. Allen

This fits my situation to a tee right now.  I am no great runner by any stretch of the imagination, but I think it can be said that I don't have the good sense to know when to quit!

Happy trails my friends!
