Tired, bored and hungry for junk
I'm taking a break from some online training and reading at work. My attention span isn't marathonesque in that I can't read for 8 hours straight, or in today's case, 10 hours. Gotta break it up with other things - an email here, a potty break there, massaging my hamstring...
I was quite impressed with myself this morning for being able to get up at 5am and get in 7 miles before work. I usually will snooze through the alarm and run later in the day, but since I have a dinner date tonight with my old running partners, that wasn't an option. The weather called for mid to high 30s in the AM so I ended up overdressing. I wore a long sleeve, light jacket, and track pants. It didn't seem cold at all. I shed the jacket but was still a touch warm. I ran comfortably fast and kind of petered out at the end, perhaps still tired from Saturday's race. I want to run faster all the time with this cooler weather. It's great. If only the weather was like this year round. I'm excited to get back to track next week.
I want to take a nap but must get back to work, after I hit the canteen. Beth got me thinking about cupcakes...or some other sweet snack. I've got healthy snacks all over my desk and they're just not cutting muster right now.
