squeezed...

you know those days when your head feels like it's being squeezed? to death? yes...those days. 

i have had a phenomenal headache all day long. it most definitely makes for an enjoyable day at work. my post work plan was to head to the temple, but plans must be amended to including me doing some serious lounging on the couch with a blanket and book. {this weather lately...really? i secretly love it. give me some dark stormy clouds any day}

i think getting up at 5am is taking its toll on me. why do we do this...we being me of course. i must run though!

.

last saturday was my longest run yet. 8 miles. i feel like i ran all over provo! our relief society was doing a temple to temple 5k, so i got up 40 mins early and ran the 3.5 miles to the temple to meet them there. ran on down to the new city center temple, then on home. the run was really good. surprisingly. {my first run of my training outside...i know i know. i should be running outside since i'll be running my half outside} but the run was good. though the rest of the day i had this same lovely pain in my head. too much fresh air me thinks? i did run outside this morning as well. 

.

training continues to move along though. i am officially 60 days from my half! my goal currently is to be able to run a 10:45 mile max...for 5 miles. i am slow people. so i'm hoping that with running downhill, i'll be able to achieve this! pray for me...i'll need it.
