Even with out sleeping well last night, my run felt pretty good. I ran 3.5 and then had to stop for a potty break. Then I ran 4 more. My time was 1:10 almost to the dot :)

Had to sleep over at my Mother's house to take care of her, so is was not a good nights sleep. But I was able to get in a 7 mile run. I finished in 1:04:50. Today was one of those days when I had frustrations and anxiety of things in my life right now. When I get this way I want to run as long and as hard as I can, almost self punishment. Hmmm I think I need to work on this.

OK I'm so feed up with not being able to sleep. Well I guess to be more accurate, staying asleep. Anyway I still ran 6.0 miles in 55:20:02. It felt good I could have run longer, but I didn't have enough time.

I didn't get a run in today. My oldest son is graduating from the U tonight, and due to my lack of sleep all week I did not get up early enough to run before work. Is it too late to run 21 miles this Saturday, then taper next two weeks before the marathon? This is one of those things that I'm really bad at knowing what to do. There is always that voice in the back of my mind that I have not run enough to be ready.

My running friend pulled her groin muscle so she has now back out of running the marathon with me. I'm very sad that I will be there without her, we are so closely matched that we are right by each other when we run. It just won't be the same running it without her :(

I live in Pleasant View.. if anyone needs a place to crash let me know I have a spare room. (twin bed) or the floor if you have a sleeping bag... or even the couch.
