Running:
Been skipping most of my running which is BAD.  The marathon is in 16 weeks so there is still plenty of time to redeem myself.  Felt a little more optimistic after completing my Turkey run in 24:41 (7:58/mile pace).  I'd like to be a bit faster than that, but considering the amount of running I have not been doing, this is ok.  I managed to drag myself out for a 5.3 miler on Friday, but couldn't drag my butt out the door today to do the same.  Tomorrow I'm going to head out for my 8 miler as planned, and I'm going to take this training schedule one week at a time.  I have to follow it to a T.  It worked for me last time, and it will work for me again so long as I do my part.  I'm just going to keep repeating 3:50 in my head over and over again for the next four months!

I also need to make sure I stick to my training because if Chris does opt to run this marathon then I need to make sure my time is better than his.  It's really a non-issue since I know his training is going to be off and his focus and determination can never match mine, but it's something I need.  After all he put me through, I my time to be better than his.  And, if he doesn't run it, that would be awesome.
