Dumb



no, this is not me,
 just how I feel



So I hurt my back on Tuesday.  But I didn't know I hurt my back until Wednesday.  So, that awesome 4 miles run on Tuesday probably did me more harm than good.  Well, I got the ok to go back to work and so I assumed I was all healed.  Yea, NO!  Running yesterday and today was not such a great idea and I only have myself to blame.  But I am so gung-ho about this marathon I don't want my training to slow down.  We'll see if I'm up for the 3 miles run I have planned for tomorrow.  I also realize I am breaking the rules I so clearly outlined to the doc I thought wouldn't approve of this marathon idea.  Blah!  I promise if my back hurts tomorrow, I will not run.

Morning runs are hard for me.  I woke up, ate an apple and peanut butter sandwich that I made the night before and placed next to my bed.  Then I went back to sleep for an hour and then watched TV for an hour.  I also drank about 12 oz of water (probably not enough).  Then I drove to the trail.  I had to walk some of the last mile of my 5 mile run so my time was slow.  I don't know if it was the heat, my food, or that my body is just used to evening runs.  Also, I ran last night around 6pm so I had less than 24 hours to recover.  I gotta figure out this morning run stuff.  If I feel well tomorrow, my 3 miles will also be done in the morning.
