ho hum

wednesday: 3 miles, felt kind of tired. 10, 9:30, and 9-minute paces, except the last .25 was at 10:00 mpm because i wanted to quasi-cool down.

thursday: 4 miles, 40 minutes.

my running has not been great this week. i mean, i've DONE what i've planned, but it hasn't felt so hot. i guess maybe (?) the marathon did take a slight toll on me? i feel oddly out of shape considering that just 2 weeks ago i completed the hardest running challenge of my life.

either today or tomorrow, i'll do a steady 6-miler. sunday, i'm hoping to get out in the forest for 9. i hope i get my stamina back in time!

argh. the cute nike shorts and top i ordered from roadrunnersports came yesterday, but all were too big. as for the shorts, i learned that apparently small in one brand does not equal small in nike. i am debating over either ordering the extra-smalls or to just cut my losses, send it all back, and shop for the shorts/top in a real-live-running-store where i can try things on. sometimes online shopping can get extremely frustrating.
