The Good, The Bad, and the UGLY!!!!

Part IV in how to train for a Marathon like a BOSS!!!
(a quick one today. this lady isn't built for daily blogging...)
Bottom line, when you're running 400 miles a week (or 4, like I have been this training cycle) things are going to fluctuate wildly between Good, Bad and just heinous and ugly.
I'm trying to become more realistic and not gnash and stew too badly when things get bad... And on the flip side I'm trying to keep a handle on the enthusiastic jumping up and down and "squeeeee-ing" when things are good! (that's a complete lie.)
 
 
The GOOD! The race is upon us! (maybe this is bad. or ugly?)

I'm excited and feel that I'm ready enough.
Ready enough to cross the damn finish line and BE DONE that is!

 
The bad (but honestly, I don't really care. I'm a messy girl.)
My house looks like THIS!
I hang race medals in the bathroom for heavens sake... WHY??
I'll have a picture tomorrow to prove it...
THE UGLY.
OMG. My FACE. My SCARY LEG!!!!!
And the fact that a 60 year old guy who was also wearing 2 sparkly headbands beat me.

  1. I would love to look like that! Although the guy with the sparkly headbands is not okay to beat you. I once had to outrun someone with a chickenhead on their head. No way in hell could I let them cross the line before me.
    Good luck on the marathon!! Run like hell.
