motivation

Thursday was a day off running.

I am having trouble keeping my motivation going. I was working towards the Crazylegs run and once that was over I started thinking in my mind...oh, it's vacation time/ rest time now. But really this is when I need to step it up when it comes to my level of training.

Friday I got up before work to run. It was really warm already at 6:15am. I was dressed for the weather I encountered on Wednesday morning, but didn't really need to be. I ran over to Shoaff Park, ran the 5K course and then ran home and showered as fast as I could. This running in the morning thing is making me late to work (shhh, don't tell my boss). Now that it is getting closer to the Half Marathon I need to be up-ing my mileage every week. Luckily I will be contending with my work schedule only 7 more work days! That is so awesome.

I took today off since I am running tomorrow and Sunday was supposed to be my day off running. I am going to start doing some kind of cross training activity on my days off running . I am not getting into the kind of shape I was in the last time at this point when I ran this half marathon.

Tomorrow I am working, but it is to coordinate the Mastodon Stomp 5K run on campus, which I am also running in. So I was going to be here anyway. I'll let you all know how it goes;)
