Had a bit of trouble sleeping last night. I'm feeling good after the marathon, I could run a few today if I had the time... but I have to give a bridal shower tonight right after work... then there is all the other stuff that once you get home you can never get away from. This is why I need to start running in the morning.

Didn't sleep very well last night, but my run felt much better then yesterday. It's weird that sometimes I can run on little sleep and other times everything hurts.

Run a 10K 6.2 in 57:10.

Didn't sleep well again last night. I don't know why sometimes I just wake-up at 1 or 2 am and can't go back to sleep. 

Running hurt today, I was able to get 6 mile in 55:40, but I think I need some new shoes, I checked my miles and I have about 440 so I think I will try to get some new ones this weekend. Maybe that will help, but I think it was just one of those days.

Slept better and got my run in this morning since I took the day off work. Still did not feel very good though. My feet and shins are a bit acky. I also have to guess on the time. I think it was about 56 minutes.

I really wanted to have a good run today, because the weather is just as I like it. Nice and cool, a little overcast. But that was not the case. Everything felt bad today. I hoped that it would all start feeling better after a couple of miles but not today. I hate to even post my miles and time today because they are so bad. But I probably would have turned around alot sooner if I didn't have the blog to post on. 

Maybe it's just after marathon blues... or hormones... I think I also need new shoes. 

I ran 6.5 in 1:03:41 (that is embarrassing) but there you have it... and everything still hurts...How can you get yourself mentally stronger when you have days like this. It is very discouraging. But there it is for the world to see. All I can do now is not dwell on it and hope that Monday is better.
