Give me an R!
I had a great run last night. We did 4 miles slow/fast/slow/fast and it felt good. I am psyched to be able to ditch the biking and to swim only for fun. Tri season is OVER for me and marathon training will begin on Sunday.
The marathon is just over three months away! We hope to do about 8 miles this coming weekend. We’ll have to do 13 miles during the Nike NYC half-marathon next weekend. The great thing about that course is that the last 5 or 6 miles is either flat or downhill. It’s the only half-marathon I’ve ever run with such a flat course. I know that I’ll be running it slowly, but at least the end should be painful.
At 3PM I’m going to see my mother. I’m in dire need of a vacation. I have a “real” vacation coming in four weekes and I am tempted to take additional time off without pay. I can’t have more days like yesterday where I spend the entire day fuming because no one wants to work with me. On days like that I need to be home!
