Worth It

First of all, despite the fact that I had no trouble waking up at 5:15 this morning, I didn’t particularly feel like running long before work today. But I told all you I was doing it, and far be it from me to let down a bunch of anonymous weirdos from the internet. So I did run long. 16.5 miles long in 2 hours, 12 minutes. Fueled by 2 burritos and a metric ton (would that be a “tonne?”) of Nutella last night and a cup of coffee, a chocolate mint Gu, and Daylight Savings Time sunshine this morning.

On a related note, just like I have opposite body dysmorphic disorder and think I’m skinnier and hotter than I am, I also have an unrealistic perception of my relative speed. Which means I emailed IMan after my long run (average pace: 8:02) and told him “I’m probably going to win Boston next year. Just FYI.”
