Four for Friday – the Crazy Town edition

1.  What.a.week.  Tired doesn’t even cover how I feel.  Work is really busy (not complaining…just commenting…) and training is going really well but things just felt like they caught up a bit more with me this week.  Mayor of Crazy Town?  You bet and I have to work all day today, overnight tonight and part of Sat night/Sunday morning as well.  I miss you sleep not that you have been very kind to me of late anyway.

2.  Last night was the last of our hill repeat sessions. 6 repeats = 14.3.km total of running at an overall pace of 6:58.  It was really, really tough but I am truly happy with how I did on the the hills this time around and how I feel today.  (Other than the whole tired thing..)

3.  This morning I ran.  Early. Really, really early.  Had I been sleeping, I would have ignored the run after last night’s workout but when you are awake from 3:15am on, you might as well get up and go for a run before 4:30.  Right?

4.  I had yet another close encounter with a skunk.  This one was real close..luckily neither it nor I were moving very fast so I was able to back pedal fast enough to make a non-smelly getaway.

Are you living in Crazy Town?  2012 is swooshing by….

You've been doing great! Very inpirational your training. Yikes about the skunk though, that would be horrible. Have a great weekend.

You are a maniac! OMG. That's some crazy dedication.

Good luck with the wacked out work schedule this weekend.

Great job getting in that run. I woke up at 3:15 and had trouble getting back to sleep too. Only it never even crossed my mind to go out for a run...

Ok, you really win the prize for sleep deprivation mixed with training! Wow. I hope you get a reprieve soon.

Hope you get some good rest soon. That run was early! Wednesdays I go for my long runs and get up either 3:30 or 3:45. A skunk is one thing I've never seen on a run. Have a good weekend!
