AM - Lucky horsepark loop 4.4 miles. I had a dream about the marathon last night. We started the race and after 30 minutes of running, they let all the elite athletes take a 5 minute break. Then we started running again, and I was feeling pretty good and relaxed. We got a 20 minute break once we hit the halfway point and I came in at 1:23:34 (goal was 1:23). I told the two other girls that we would have to pick it up in the second half to get the qualifying time. As we were resting, I started getting really anxious and nervous that the people in charge never stopped the clock and all this time was going against us! We were running again, and I remember thinking that the stop-and-go might actually be harder than just to keep running. Then I woke up. Dreams are so weird. So moral of the story - as much as I may want to stop, it's probably not in my best interest :) Final Miles Motivation Blog. Let me know if you have anything to add!!
