The last few runs last work were not fun. They seemed hurt and felt like doing chores. This morning I finally started to get that happy, "I love running" feeling that I usually get when I run. It was a beautiful morning, 60 degrees, no wind and I was up early enough to see the sun rise up over the mountains and onto the lake. I think that helped. My legs felt a lot better today also.

Anyways I did an easy run with the first .2 to .25 miles of each mile after the first between 1/2 MP and MP. Rest day again tomorrow and the Wed I think I'll do the same run I did today except just 6 miles.

I'm trying to get a little extra sleep at night and boy does it feel good.

AND THERE WAS JOY IN RUNNINGVILLE!!!!

I loved my run this morning. I just wanted to keep running. It all felt good!!! I did 6 easy miles. After the 1st mile I did the first quarter of each mile at 1/2MP. I meant to do it at MP and I kept slowing myself down, but I just felt great today!!!

6 Miles AP 7:29

My legs are ready. Now if we can get the weather to cooperate, it will just depend on how mentally tough I am on race day.

I decided to take another rest day in hopes not to agrivate my PF. My foot finally feels good again today. Thank goodness, cause I couldn't even walk earlier in the week. I feel like I want to get out and run, but I keep reminding myself that it won't make any difference at this point and it could hurt my foot.
