Today was a bad day. I woke up early for my training run and decided to do it on the treadmill so I could have the ease of the treadmill keeping my pace and wouldn't have to use as much willpower. I guess my legs weren't quite ready after my 15 mile run on Saturday.
My long run on Saturday went really well and I felt pretty good considering it was my longest run by 5 miles since my last marathon in October. I ran it at my mgp (marathon goal pace) plus about 30 seconds which is what my training plan had me do.
But today my legs felt like lead. I chalked it up to a bad day and cut my intervals down a bit and ended up getting in 5 miles. I hope my next one goes better. I think I'll hit the pool tomorrow and do some laps to give my legs another break.

I am a runner
I run because I feel good when I'm done. I run because it is the best way to get back into shape after having babies. I run because I like a challenge. I run because I love the outdoors. I run because I'm competitive with myself. I run because there is nothing like the sense of accomplishment when you reach goal.
