No morning girl

5 miles - So I did a morning treadmill run and told myself I would do higher mileage to make up for my slackerness yesterday. Still a bit sore from the sprinting but set the tread to a 5 mile run. Somewhere during the run, I got it in my mind that I was doing 4 miles. So at 3.5 miles I decide, screw the sore legs, this interval thing is fun! So ran at 5.5 for 3 miles, 6.0 for 1/d mile and I did some sprinting up to 7.5 and back down the "last" half mile to 4, at which time I realized I had set out to do 5. How I knew this? Ole' tread did not stop. ha. I was prepared for it, grabbed the handles and... nothing... she just kept rolling. This my friends is why I should not be given any tasks in the morning that could have serious consequences. Ha. So I ran that last mile with some more intervals the last .5 and called a good run. Hoping that I won't be sore for the Saturday 20 miles. That's right party people.... 20 miles. at one time. no awards. no crowds or bands cheering. no water stations every mile. Just us and the open road (or trail, but you see what I'm say'n). The good news = I think I'm ready for this. :) Mentally, I'm all about it, hoping my body feels the same way come Sat. (I may say otherwise on Saturday at 6am, as I've got a family friend and husband staying at my house on Friday night with their 2 mth old twins. hee. hee. Yay!!!!)

p.s. Favorite new costco snack for the high maintenance can't cut their own or simply eat the apple with cutting into pieces apple eater.
