feeling satisfied, the smiling secretary got out of bed to take a piss with the carnal knowledge the pope is pooped.
today's run was an another adventure. the marathon is in two weeks and it was crucial to have a good long day training run. this is the week to do the most miles before tapering off for the race. i had planned to get to bed early after a good dinner. i had a good dinner but did not get to bed early like i planned. since it was sunday, i slept in. i did not get out of bed until 9:00 am. i did not finish running until after 12:00 pm. so what was the adventure?
there were lots of folks out running and walking. everyone seemed to be in good spirits. i was running with a friend. his name was hangover. i know better but i did it anyway. i don't recommend it at all. dinner was a salad and lunch was a salad. it might have not been as bad if i had more carbs. i did learn i can still run without carbs. it might have not been as bad if i had not drank so much. i did learn i drink to much. through some miracle i finished the goal. it was a balance of speed, breathing and persistence. possibly even a little self punishment.
the mile goal was 12 miles but i went ahead and ran the 13.1 to get in the full miles of the race. i won't run longer than 8 miles at a time until race day.
