So after my 430am wakeup yesterday and 18.6 miler/race, I got home showered, blogged, unpacked car from daddy daughter campout (hubby mowing lawn), fed kids lunch, went to see Harry Potter with 11 year old, then drove to Provo Kid to Kid to buy tap/ballet shoes.  Got home at 525pm, ate a wonderfully prepared dinner by Troy, dressed for work and clocked into work at 559pm for another all nighter.  Didn't get real tired until 200am.  Legs felt great all night.  Got home at 0700, slept from 740 am until 1040 when peaked at clock, fell asleep again until noon.  Got up ate cereal.  Checking for April's race report.  Not in yet.  Off to bed again.  This is a killer, no quality sleep week.  Mind over Matter I tell myself.  Work Mon, Wed, and Thursday nights.  So running will only be on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday (way short) then Saturday.  No speed planned so I can recover and hopefully run well at Hobble.  Goal really only under 1:30.  Lately I just want marathon pace cause it is all about the big PR at SGM.

Great goals for this week Julie. You are running all over the place, aren't you? I know that you can pull a 1:30 or below on Saturday, I'm looking forward to that report. Keep training strong.

You are so amazing Julie. I don't know how you do it all. I'm sure you'll get 1:30 or below at HB. You're running so well. Keep it up.

1:30 will be nothing for you! You will do great and you are going to kick some serious butt in the marathon. I am so excited for all your fall races your training is AMAZING right now!
