Until I started this athletic nonsense, when I heard someone say 8 Miles, I assumed they were referring to that ridiculous Eminem movie. You know, the one where he had the "rap off" with his enemy while Brittany Murphy watched with love in her eyes. (I recently came across that movie on Encore and it was as terrible as I remembered it. Just sayin'.)
Today, I ran 8 miles because that is what my Health Magazine Beginners Marathon Training Schedule said I had to do. Compared to last week's 18miles it really felt like a piece of cake. The only issue that I had was an iPod situation where my headphones made loud crackling sounds in my ears during Love the Way Your Lie by Eminem and Rhianna. Weird, right? (See paragraph 1 of this post if you don't see the weirdness in that).
Next week, it's the big 20 mile run. Happy Easter to me. Nothing like chocolate bunnies and the inability to move without terrible joint pain all in one day. I am not sure if I will go to a local park that has a 5 mile loop and complete the 20 miler or if I will attend a group 20 miler on the marathon course sponsored by this cool, local running store called Up N Running.
What would you do? (I think I just asked this question to nobody...since I have no readers.)
