Week 1 Day 2

I am a marathoner. Today I woke up on time, put on my clothes, grabbed my Gatorade, and headed out the door. I was the first one there this morning, which is great considering what happened yesterday. I was excited this morning. I remembered the camera. I couldn’t wait to see the guys in order to get started. I was hydrated. I was dressed right. I was pumped. I was also in the wrong place! I went to the wrong running spot! I couldn’t believe I made two big mistakes in two days! At any rate, I finally remembered where I was supposed to be and headed there. I was still there in time for the run. Everyone was there and everyone gave their all. We ran 4 miles today, which is the farthest I have ever run. It’s hard to believe I will even top that this coming Saturday when we run 5 miles. I was also excited that I remembered to hydrate with 6-8 ounces of fluid at the 15-20 minute mark. I thought it would feel weird to drink and continue running, but after just one burp about 30 secs later, I was good. Tomorrow is a rest day and I am looking forward to it!
