my god that's it - it IS groundhog day!!

Well the alarm went off.  I lay there.  It went off again.  I lay there again.  :(  oh good god do i really have to get up and run another hour, and not only an hour but at a 10k pace?  shit.  as Matt would say...I'm not "making" you do anything, you choose to come here!  very true.  still.  I pulled up my email on my phone. Truth be told I was hoping for an out - an email from Z saying, skip today's run.  It wasn't there.  But what I did see were comments from Marc and Richard on my blog post last night.  Thanks you guys!!  Seriously.  Means a LOT.  It was enough to get my a$$ out of bed and go.  Literally, I jumped right up and went out.  I admit I didn't do the full hour, but I did almost 6 miles, and I did manage my 10k+10 pace.  Ugh.  It hurt, but I did it.  And another truth - I gotta run when I am tired like this, train my body to do it.  That's what this is all about.  It really is true - the Ironman is just the cherry on top - it's the training that's hard.  And I know I've only scratched the surface of the "tough stuff".

Okay, another long day ahead of me...and another day late to the office...oh well.  It's not like I don't work my butt off when I'm there.

later...happy training or something like that
