This morning I have been super productive. I took Riley on a long walk. Thinking I will take him on another longer walk in a few before it gets really warm today. I am now cleaning my house (well not really cleaning my house right now since I am on the computer) With school starting and running I just haven't been keeping up with things around the house like I would like to. I have a mowed yard and the vacuum still gets run..but the place just needs a really good cleaning. :) Looks like today is the day for it! I would also like to do some yard work this evening but we will see if that happens. What I really need is a maid..anyone want to apply?? I can't really pay you so the pay would be the knowledge that my house is clean and you did it :)
After this week I have three more weeks until my first full marathon! Yikes! I will say that I don't think I will be running another anytime soon. It just takes too much time out of my schedule to train. The night before a long run I have to make sure I am in bed early and have eaten something that will work on a long run. It is just a lot of running. I much prefer a half marathon. Training for a half marathon does not take over your life which I sort of like. :)
Yesterday I was looking at some shoes and found my Pure Cadence pretty cheap at Finishline.com. 70 dollars. Its like Christmas in October! I love getting a shoe deal!

I hear you on the investment of time when it comes to training for a full. I really love the accomplishment, but it's quite a road to get there! I also skipped my run today. We've got 30-40 mph winds whipping through here, so I'm laying low. Sometimes rest is the best thing. You'll have a better 20 miler if you're rested than if you push through it on willpower alone.
Sounds like you made a great choice to push the 20 mile run to tomorrow!!! You will do great on the 20 and it will fuel your confidence going into the marathon!! Enjoy your weekend!
