Run Faster…

nightrunner_350

… or start earlier?

With all the DAILY MEDICAL THINGS that are happening, I’ve found it difficult to get out and run.

When I have the time – it’s too hot.  When it’s cooler – it’s too late.

Granted, I could go to the gym – but with Mom still needing someone around 24-7, it hasn’t been possible this week.

Tonight’s run BEGAN WITH THE BEST INTENTIONS and ended up in complete darkness by 7:53pm?

Yes. Really.

While I admit that it felt good to get out there and run – I’m bored with my route.  I’m beginning to panic because I feel like I need to run a L-O-N-G-E-R distance on a more consistent basis to be ready for THE GREAT RACE!

Wait.

I seem to remember that same panicked feeling about wondering if I had the distance for my first 5k?

I just need to chill the heck out. ASAP.

My plan is to get one more long run in – hopefully over 5 miles.  If I’m able to do that – then I will feel comfortable beginning the TAPERING RUNS next week.

NEXT WEEK?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!
