Night run.

I didn't get a chance to run in the morning due to having an early dentist appointment. I had a big dinner last night and then had to wait longer to run. The best thing about living in Stansbury is there are some good roads to run on that not a lot of cars travel on. It makes me feel a little safer when I do have to get a run in at night.

I'm glad it's finally starting to warm up a little. I'm sure it won't last. When I was doing my cool down last night, I started pondering about the marathon and realized that this thing is right around the corner. April 18th. Feelings of being nervous and anxiety ran through my body and still run through my body right now. I ponder if I will be able to run it with no problems or be one of those runners that has many problems during the race. I wonder if my mind will be ready for the race and if I have the notorious, "Mind over matter" skill.

Last night I did get a little tired during my run and felt like I needed to stop. My body was telling me it was tired and I could feel it in my legs. I just about stopped but then quickly realized that I have to push myself because it will help me come marathon time. I was able to continue my entire run without stopping and I felt good at the end of my run. Hopefully I can mantain that same ability throughout the race.
