(STINK!!! I think there is a coorelation with the headaches I have been getting and swimming. I haven't been wearing my earphones in the pool since my ipod broke again and I think water is getting inside my ear.)

*** It was great to finally see Fonz at the gym again. Good conversation makes the minutes fly by!

13.14 miles - AP: 7:57

Was really bummed that the air was so stinky outside and that I would have to run on the treadmill. I decided to run at the gym in hopes of making the time go by faster. Because I didn't have as much time as I would like I decided that I would push the pace a bit. My plan was to alternate between 8:34s and 8:00s. However, the gym was packed (could barely find a treadmill) and all of the runners got the juices flowin' in me. Needless to say, as I began to run I formulated a new plan. I thought, "Hey Teena, why don't you see if you can match your last year's Painter's time." Stupid idea, I know. But it became my mission. I couldn't remember my exact time but knew it was a little under 1:45, so that was the time to match or beat. I ended up having to dig deep and hit puke zone the last two miles but finished in 1:44:28!! :) I actually ran almost 1/20th of a mile too long because I was closing my eyes and counting down the end (in hopes of keeping the puke down). My counting must have been a little off!

Hope this run doesn't negatively impact my race this week. But I am very happy! :)

(Beat my last year's Painter's time by 23 seconds.)

** Notes to self: Tried the new Gu "Roctane." Not sure if it was the pace or the gel, but my stomach felt really icky after the run. Also, need to drink more since I lost three pounds during the run. Or is that what I should expect? Who knows. Drank at 4 miles, had a gu and a little drink at mile 7, more drink at 9 and 11. Seems sufficient when I write it down. Hmmm...
