Tomorrow I will do everything right. I will start by sleeping in. Then I will have a leisurely but generous breakfast. I will dress appropriately. I will stay well hydrated and I will even put a few bananas in the mailbox. I will wear my heart rate monitor and focus exclusively on that indicator as opposed to time. I will stay close to home and run only as far as I can without getting into trouble.
And I damn well better have a good run or I'm gonna lose my mind!!!
I have already pretty feel decided to forego my marathon which is slated for 4 weeks from Sunday. I just can't see any possible way I will be ready.....barring some kind of a miracle tomorrow. That may even be a good thing. Certainly all of the experts caution against doing a marathon as part of your preparation. For me it was more of a psychological issue than a physical one because that was part of my strategy last time around.
Wish me luck!
Your smile of the day. I went into my giant test tube today with my underwear on, and they are decidedly not 100% cotton. Fortunately I never realized it until I was just about done, or I would have been stressed out of my tree wondering whether I should tell them or not. I don't know what they would have done but I suspect the protocol would be to shut down and take me out. By the time I figured it out I decided to keep my mouth shut. After all.....I never blew up! Oh, and by the way, that has happened a few times around the world, including an equine chamber in Florida just over a month ago. That explosion killed both the horse in the chamber and the technician running it. Here's the story.
