So...yesterday's run

went well, but did not take place at the previously mentioned time of 5:00AM. I just could not quite get my butt out of bed. I had a good run, albeit after completing my work duties for the day.

Today I did not run. Friday is my scheduled day of rest. It's also my day of somewhat lousy eating. I try to follow healthy eating (and drinking) habits for the majority of the week, but also allow myself what my husband calls a "cheat day" once a week. I really need to try and move it from Friday, because I know how important it is to fuel my body properly the day before a long run...but old habits die hard.

On a lighter note, today's Pearls Before Swine comic strip, which incidently is the best strip ever written seemed perfectly applicable to this setting and will no doubt make your day. Feel free to chuckle out loud.
