Dreaming of running

This morning, when the alarm went off at 4:10, I decided that I could sleep longer and still get in my planned 2 miles.  So, I set another alarm for 4:45.  As I went back to sleep, I was trying to talk myself out of getting up early to work out.  My muscles were pretty sore from yesterday's lifting session.  But, as I slept, I dreamed I was getting ready to go running.  I don't think I ever made it.  I was looking for something I felt I needed.  When I woke up, I realized I needed to get up and go!  And I did!

Today's run was a treadmill run of 2 miles.  Nothing special.  The fan was off when I got there, so I moved it to point directly at me from the side and turned it on full speed.  Nice.  It was -4.5F outside when I left home.  There seems to be less ice outside, but in that cold there was no way I was going out!

I'm going to print out another SmartCoach schedule.  This time I really need to hold to it if I am going to run the 20k without increasing my distance too much.
