Down But Not Out

This is my first posting in 10 days.....shortly after my last post....a headache of proportions I have not seen in years took me down. I muttled through the day but running was not on my radar. Today was my first chance to get in a run since that headache (and the leftover effects on my body) lifted. So I picked up where my training plan left off and ran 4 miles on the treadmill today. Clearly my time "off" from running made my time suffer. I finished those 4 miles in a long 47 minutes. But the really good part about it was that while I really didn't feel like getting on the treadmill today....I did.....and there were a number of times I wanted to quit and call it a day....but I stayed through it....and now I can't wait for tomorrow! The training plan tomorrow calls for my first multiple run day. This will help to prepare for the 3 runs I will make during the relay with hours in between. Tomorrow's plan is for two short runs (3 miles each). I am really looking forward to it!!! More tomorrow at the end of the second run. Two-a-days here I come!!
