I just run to the postal office a block away. I was underdressed and cold so I sprinted like a maniac, does that count as speedwork?

But the marathon isn’t going to run itself. And I do remember one thing I kept asking Blaise all through the winter last year when I was (miserably) training for Boston in a nasty winter. I kept asking if all this horrible running in super cold temperatures would make us…

I used to spin around like crazy when I was a kid because I thought I was the real Wonder Woman. After I almost took my eye out and was bleeding out of my face, I stopped.

I don’t want to eat until after I run. But I am lazy, or scared of the cold, and I delay the run for hours. Then I am starving. And I decide it’s time to go for a run. I still don’t. Then it’s starting to get late. At some…

So excited! But feet hurt like hell!

Horrendous Run today. VERY CRAPPY 10.3 miles. I wanted to curl down and cry. But it’s in the books!
