Really?!?

 Oh, running gods how funny you are.  Felt crummy all week and couldn't finish more than 1.5 miles.  Tight, sore, slow, and just generally exhausted.  Well I got a late start tonight.  I usually run at 7 or 8, but I didn't get out the door until 10pm.  Which is rough when I am supposed to be in bed by 11 for work (that's obviously not going to happen).    

This is me looking exhausted, ready for bed, but still making myself run.
Notice the neon shirt & I'm rocking a blinker so I don't get hit by cars (pitch black outside)!

And tonight I felt great.  Really?... When I am supposed to be in bed and am only planning on running 1 mile to keep the streak alive, that's when I feel fabulous.  What?  Oh, how amusing running can be.  I had a good run and had to force myself to stop after 5 miles or I would have been running all night and more exhausted than I will already be tomorrow.  Running really is a metaphor for life and boy can it be crazy sometimes.  Things never go as you had planned.
