Attitude Change
I have a new respect for marathon runners. How do they do it over and over again? and Why? I ask that question a lot. I have days I feel uninspired and then I come across some awesome quote or get some awesome video on an e-mail and it gets me goin again.
This is hard....I am trying to keep a positive attitude. Just 2 more long runs before the reeeeally long run. We have 18 this weekend and 20 next weekend then 9 then 8 then 26.2...
I am always amazed at the neverending support of my family. I couldn't do this without my darling husband and a rocking running partner. I don't know how people do this alone. It definitely tests your mind, your head and your brain, and your body. It's days like this, after only 8 miles, and I'm beat and sore, and can't move very well, that I get discouraged. Maybe I should eat, that would help.

you inspire me! you rock blondie!
Keep kicking butt! I hope to come to Utah for the marathon. My bro is running as well. good luck, you'll do GREAT!
I would love it if you would post your menu on your regular, or a recipe blog. It only took me a couple of minutes to create mine since it is tied in with my other blog.
