I must be serious about this marathon thing. I tried to talk myself out of the last long run. It's been a busy month. I've traveled to Milwaukee, New Orleans, and Dallas for business. While I was able to keep up with weekly runs on the road, I wasn't as successful as working in the long runs. I told myself while lying bed bed the night before this last run. I didn't eat enough. I drank too much. My body is tried. Somewhere inside me came this tiny voice, you're doing it and that was that.
It was a nice and easy run down to campus and back. I was under my time goal for the mileage and I felt like I could've gone on a few more miles. My only regret was that I didn't head out earlier. The humidity was a pain after the first hour. Still, I knocked it out. The next challenge will be planning around football games and tailgates. Hopefully, that little "you're doing it" voice has its game day face ready to go. I'm going to need it.
Twelve weeks down. Thirteen weeks to go.
