Early Morning

My plan for yesterday evening (as of yesterday afternoon) was to go to Barnes and Noble, then to the gym.  I got step one done, but not step two.  For a valid reason, though, as it was project related.  I picked up my "Runner's World Training Journal" and couldn't put it down.  It's full of training tips, injury prevention advice, and nutrition facts that all fascinated me.  So, instead I wasted (you could say, but I more like enjoyed) my gym time reading this book, and I haven't even started to fill it out!  It lays out my training week by week and I am excited to get started writing in it.  I am committed to taking notes in it religiously, as it can only help to see my progress, right? 

So, instead, I resentfully woke up at 5:00 this morning to get to the gym when it opened.  I did a lot of cardio and a short weight circuit, followed by a quick stretch, because I was running out of time and had to get to school! (Get it? Running out of time?)

I also spoke to my brother about the date for the half and he said wasn't sure about his race schedule.  I just checked online, though, and he has a big race the next day, so it looks like that won't work out.  Oh well.

Once I have gotten my training plan laid out and have gotten into the swing of things, I think it would be fun to track my nutrition for a week to see if and how much it affects how well I am able to perform.
