I had a very hard week. On top of the everyday activities plus therapy and running 10, 12, 6 and 18 miles we've moved family members and somethings I'm sure I'm forgetting. I know I completely forgot to run a 4 mile on Sat. I just didn't have anytime. I wasn't going to run it at 10pm and wake up at 6 to run 18. Oh well. With everything going on I thought it best to ditch my big 18 mile plan to run a new path and I just stick to my sub. Yep I mapped out 18 miles in my sub! I ended up running a big loop 8 times and found a 2 mile path to and from my house. It was only out of guilt that I completed 18, but I only ran 15. I was in so much pain I walked the last 3miles, more like hobbled. haha Needless to say I was very disappointed. Good or bad my revised schedule from my therapist had 18 my big run and from now on I'm tapering. I'm very worried that I physically will not be able to complete the whole marathon. A few good things I'm counting on 1. I'll be running with friends and a mass of people, 2. I'll be running in a new area 3. it's only one time. I'm hoping this will be enough for me to push through it all. This week we're off to California for a little r and r, family and of course a little beach running. Get your miles in :) TNT will be running their big 20 miler this weekend. Good luck everyone I'll be thinking about you!!
