9 miles and no headache

HA there is something to be said for listening to the advice of others. My friend Cass who does marathons said maybe my headaches were hydration related so I made sure I was well hydrated last night and had enough with me for my run today. Did 9 miles and no headache, no runner's high either but I ain't holdin my breath I'm going to get that. Just normal aches and pains.

I did my run walk combo and made it my goal to run 10 minutes of every mile. Considering I'm pretty slow and only do a mile in 12 1/2 to 13 minutes thats a pretty fair amount of running for me. That is going to be my goal for the actual run as well. I'd be pretty darn happy with that.

It amazing to think when I started this I couldn't even run .25 miles!

It was raining this morning when I got up so instead of wasting 45 minutes driving to SLO in the hopes it wasn't raining there I just hit the gym instead. So I actually was done by 7:45!

We may go try and hit the Harbor Festival. Logan swears he doesn't need a nap so maybe....if I can pry Judd away from his computer game that is.

Way to go lady! Once you reach your 10-11 mile marker you don't need to run any further. The other 2-3 will be easy on race day. I am very proud of you!
