Bad dreams! I dremt that the first two marathons I have done, (st. G and ogden this past year) were actually done with multi hour breaks in between running stints because I had to work and take care of the kids, so in reality I had actually never run a marathon all the way through. Glad that was just a dream. I started this morning's run on my own but saw Whitney and joined her. She was on a recovery run but running 7 flat pace, so I, embarrassed, asked if we could slow it down. My legs are still sore from the race. We slowed it down but only to 7:15 ave pace for the 5 miles I ran with her. I finished up my miles on my own, though I saw the high school's cross country team ahead of me and caught the stragglers, held myself back from catching the main packs since I'm doing a hard workout tomorrow. I did another ice bath this morning. This time added one ziplock baggie of solid ice. Temp was 59F. Still too warm. I guess I better start filling up some more ziplock bags so I am ready for tomorrow. This week is supposed to be another 85 mile week. Fun fun! weight: 123 (lots of banana chocolate chip cookies yesterday while watching the olympics-a bad sort of irony to be watching the olympics while stuffing my face with cookies- I'll have to stick to fruit for the rest of my two week couch potato stint called the summer Olympics)
