racing is pain, and that's why you do it, to challenge the limits of your physical and mental barriers. you don't experience that in an armchair watching television.

i got a bad foot cramp in my right foot in the middle of the night last night, so when my alarm went off at 6am for my grueling 2 mile run i ignored it. well that and the fact that my bed was nice and warm, and the temp outside was a brisk 28 or so. i'm not sure if i'll do the run once i get to atlanta or if i'll just chill out and get ready for the morning. i am, of course, leaning heavily towards skipping it.
i went by one of the local running stores (run in) during lunch to get some gu for the race and left with a new pair of saucony grid a2's as well. they were on sale ($30 off) and my current pair already has about 300 miles on them so i couldn't resist.today has been a busy but easy day at work, and i am enjoying a slightly higher calorie count day than normal. the night before i ran the south bend, in marathon (my current pr) i ate a chicken sandwich from mcdonald's. so i won't be eating pasta for dinner tonight either. i'm thinking i can pr again off another happy meal, and why mess with a good thing. plus maybe ol' ronald will want me to be the next jared. :)
