first time in a long time i have hit over 30 miles in two consecutive weeks.  Small goal accomplished.  

Just went back in my calendar and I didn't realize how bad it was.  Two back to back over 30 in Oct-Nov and one was only due to the marathon miles.  Before that, it was three in a row over 40 in May. Wow

just not feeling very good running this week. I'm just aren't feeling it.  At about 8 miles, it started to feel better, but then it started to crash.  I was a little under fed and dehyrated.  Overall happy with the run -- happy that i did it anyway.

Bro-TimP - are you running with a goal or just for fun?

In my situation I've found that if I have a defined goal ahead of me I run with commitment and purpose, where as if I'm just out running I have no direction and I seem to sabotage myself with excuses to fail.

The only excuse I find helpful is one that leads to success.

Sorry about that, I just wanted to kick myself in the butt...34 days and a wake up till the Boston.

Sometimes you feel like a nut. Sometimes you don't.

It's just par for the course.

Actually I did a marathon in late march. It was ok for not doing over 12. I have a 5k in about a month. Then we can see. Maybe a 10k or so in the fall.

What instrument does he play? I imagine it takes some good conditioning to be marching around and playing an instrument at the same time. Maybe you should get him out running with you.
