Day 14 was a real trial. I had a lot of "kid-stuff" to deal with, and it ate all of my run time during the day. Then we came home to a plethora of dog puke and diarrhea, which I had to leave, because some guy was harassing Selena on her walk to Target from a friend's house, so I had to go drive her back, and Jacob didn't get home from work until 8:30, then graciously cleaned up the horrific mess, but we didn't get to run, then, either.
This morning, I planned to run early, before it was 95F, but woke with a lot of gut pain, again. It seems to be dissipating, so I'm hoping to take the kids on their bikes and run a long, flat, stretch of Grant's Trail this afternoon.
I am determined to get my marathon training done, and I will. These sorts of obstacles always come up, and they are always surmountable. I always get to the finish line, and I don't intend to change that now!
And a quick shoe note! I am still LOVING, LOVING, LOVING the Merrell Pace Glove shoes! They are fab for everyday wear, I love the color (chili pepper red), and they are non-smelly (a big issue for me) and they are easy to rinse off (stepped in a LOT of muck the other day) and are holding up well to my abuse. I tend to go through shoes very quickly, the soles, although soft, are not showing signs of wear.
