Lesson Learned!

I loathe being sick.

Especially on cool crisp fall days like yesterday and today.

(insert cry baby face here)

But luckily (?) it was only a 1 1/2 day thing.

I blame it on Mimi's chili. TMI

So about that 10k training?

Yeahhhhh.

Today I was scheduled to do 3 miles.

Only did 1.

I read somewhere that any run you can fit in is better than nothing?

I hope so.

Cause I felt like crap afterwards. 

Probably shouldn't have done it.

But my legs felt amazing during that mile! I couldn't believe it! 

The stomach on the other hand...not so well

I learned something tonight.

It's fall...

The sun sets A LOT earlier than it used to.

Still had some daylight. But not a whole lot.

(Yes I wore bright colored stuff...safety first!)

And...

I was listening to Pandora...

Rob Zombie.  Pandora.

WTF was I thinking?

Nothing like setting the tone of my run with a dose of Paranoia.

Constantly looking over my shoulder because I'm running on a not so well traveled road, at dusk...in October, the scariest month of the year...no streetlights...stupid squirrels rustling through the leaves...making me think there is a mass murderer lurking behind the bushes...waiting to attack me...

Ok.

You get it.

I freaked myself out.

As much as I love your rock n' roll Mr. Zombie.

You are now x'ed from my running mix.

I'll stick to the "fo shizzle my nizzle" music for now.
