Well, I put a few more measures in place to try and prevent SPAMMERS from posting on my blog. Its unfortunate that such idiots exist in this world. I hope it works … (i’m just getting tired of deleting comments all the time from spammers).

Anyway, I got up and out early today at 5:20am in the dark to get my 8-miler in. I was surprised in my training that I didn’t have to do 10 miles today like normal, and i’m not sure why this isn’t the case this week, but we’ll go with it. I did get 2 miles in yesterday and have 22 planned for Saturday, so I intend on hitting 52+ miles this week before starting the taper. I actually had no pain anywhere, no struggle, and i’m not dead-tired afterward. I wonder whats going on??? I ran it pretty good to (in 1:17). I guess I should be happy that the groin pain could have been worse I guess, but it has subsided.

I’m doing better sticking to my eating I think, I know I stopped myself from eating stuff I shouldn’t have eaten yesterday, and even though I am going to a concert tonight, I don’t plan on pigging out on anything. Tomorrow’s run will be an experience since I know i’ll be tired from being out all night. Oh well, we’ve had worse (remember running on vacation, and how tired you were??)
