It's been a busy week. My first run was on Thursday because I was in Denver on Monday and Tuesday and in class on Monday and Wednesday nights. So I missed Tuesday track practice because I was sitting in Denver traffic.
But that's okay. My runs on Thursday and Friday were tough. I felt tired. My legs felt like lead - like they do when you don't run for 3 days. And when you are fighting a nasty cough. Might have been allergy related, I have no idea.
So I was skeptical of today's run. Supposedly doing 1:45. Turned out that it was much better than I anticipated! It wasn't fast, but the lungs were fine, again, much better than anticipated. I put in 9.7 miles and 1:40. All in all a good effort with many weeks yet to go before the race.
I'm so psyched by the generosity of spirit that surrounds me. All of the money that I raise over my $1600 minimum will go 100% directly to LLS programs and research. And at least 75% of the $1600 will go to the same. I've got nearly $500 additional dollars in donations going straight to LLS! You all are awesome.
Time for a little rest so that I can go for a trail run tomorrow with the girls and then dive into the school books!
Happy Father's Day to all out there who are father's!
