I fooled myself
So.. Last night I did my 10k for part of the virtual 10k that I was supposed to participate in today. I knew I wasn't going to feel like it today, so I just got it out of the way. I ran this loop at the park, and added a little extra to make it a full 10k. I thought at the end that the beginning loop I did couldn't nearly be a half mile for the extra half that I needed. I came home, told my friends that I ran 6 miles in 66 minutes (I had to add all the songs together in itunes!). I went to sleep for only 7 hours. When my dog rudely woke me up at 630 this morning, I decided to check it out on Gmap-pedometer.com. To my surprise, the extra loop I did was .75. So, that's on top of the extra loop at the end I did to make up for it just in case. I ended up running 6.5 miles in 66 minutes. I'm so tired right now from lack of sleep, but soooo on top of the world for taking it that far. I feel absolutely fantastic. Now, if I can just get the dog to come inside and go back to sleep just for an hour or so, I'd be even happier!
