I need to run

I had to skip running for the past two days due to plans outside of my usual routine. On Wednesday, my wife and I met with a girl who will be bar tending at our Halloween party this year to get her a costume, and on Thursday, I met with a fellow National Gaurdsman and we had a few drinks together. That leaves me with four days since my last run. Today, I plan on running after work. My muscles feel like they need it. They’re plenty rested after the fast run I had on Monday, and they feel ready. I’m going to try to have a relaxed run today, but I seem to have problems just taking runs slow. I always push myself.

So, we’ll see how it goes. I’m hoping my next post is a post-run report.
