Yo.
My eyeball popped open at 2:05 this morning and remained that way until well after 5:00. I managed to get in 30 minutes or so worth of sleep a couple of times before finally getting up at 7:30 but for sure, my ass will be dragging all damn day today.

Good morning!
Sleep has been a fickle thing at my house this week as well.
I ran 4.6 slow miles this morning. It's all good.
Have a great day!

Morning!
I hate when that happens, LRB. Sleep well tonight.
PR, glad to see you still at it.
I have 8 with strides tonight.

RED ALERT! There is a bargain bin sale over at good ol' R-Dubs! The FB15D discount works on top of it too. Got a pair of Wave Riders and a Oiselle tank for $55.
7 with 2 dress rehearsal today. Allergies are creeping in and my HR was too high and now I'm mildly terrified. I hit my pace just fine, but I can't run a whole marathon at 170 bpm.

'Morning! My May swim onslaught continued this morning. 2800 yards done and I was tired. 8 swims that last 10 days. It's still cool that my avg "tired pace" for 2800 yards is faster than what my one lap all out sprint pace was a year ago. Aaaanyway, tempo run tonight.

You appear to be at the appropriate level of terrified. You're ready.
12 miles.

Lauren, thanks for the alert. Wave Riders purchased. Couldn't pass on $43 for shoes.
lol
For as wide awake as I was for those three hours, I felt as if a sleeping bag filled with sand fell out of the sky and landed on me for most of the morning at work!
I went and bought more shoes. You know, like I need any...or 3.
Nothing for me. Most of those shoes are color schemes or models I wasn't particularly fond of.
The current, soon to be replaced version of my daily trainer has been on clearance for weeks, proof enough that it was a crap model.
Looks like nothing for me there.
I did just buy a new pair of Ghost 9s through my coworker's friend's employee discount, which I wish I would've known about a long time ago. Employees can give "friends & family" discounts, your Brooks.com account just gets set up to automatically give the discounted price. Mostly a benefit for current (non-sale) models, because the discount is 40% off original list price. The Ghost 9, regularly $120, is currently on sale for $90. I got them for $72 (40% off the $120). If/when at some point they become discounted to $70, there's no additional discount. Still, I saved some money, and needed the shoes anyway because I'm up to about 400 miles.

I didn't buy the ones from sale, though! Which makes it worse. Thanks, Lauren!

Nice. I wish I had friends.
Ran to work
My race (I'm the organizer) went well: 16 runners - we've crowned new title holders both in the men and the women categories
Will run back home
