You never slow down, you never grow old

So I figured no big deal, I can play a women's B- volleyball tournament after running 18 miles yesterday...turns out after getting painfully beaten in the first 2 games, we won the next 6 and end up taking 2nd place in pool play.  So of course we take the semi-finals to 3 hard fought games then have only a 5 minute break until the finals...against the only team that beat us.  We lost the first game in a pretty tight match then managed to win the second game (with about zero energy left) so we are forced to a third game to 15 points, win by 2, no cap.  We were up a few points to start but then they caught up and and we played back and forth points until we finally pulled it out to a 20-18 win!!!!!!!  I have no idea how I found the energy to play, especially middle position and hope I don't fall over dead!

5.0 on the treadmill in 42:52 [ 8:34 pace]

Finally got in a run after my intense long run/ volleyball tournament weekend that had me sleeping a wicked lot this week!  My left hip and quad is still pretty tight but I spent some extra time stretching yesterday so hopefully that helps.....

Today's run was miserable.  Mentally, Jenny and I were so not into the run then there was tons of ice on the Minuteman trail so we decided to get off the trail and run the sidewalks because at least most of them had been cleared so we just ran around and around and around until we hit 3:10:13 and figured that had to be 20 miles....(it was really close when I Gmaped it.... it was only shy a little).  We just had a crap run and we both knew it and were glad it was over...
