A phone call late last week informed me that my brother was in the hospital with congestive heart failure. That realigned a whole lot of priorities quickly and I spend time adjusting to what I needed to be doing and the possibility of a trip home while medical procedures are done. As I write this, cautherization is being done at the hospital in Maine near where he lives. Depending upon what they find, my schedule will adjust from there.
One of the things that suffered was my running AND my writing in this blog. Let me catch up.
I ran 3.08 miles on Thursday and another 3.03 miles on Friday. Saturday and Sunday I never got a run in but will attempt to do so today. So as of Sunday my miles for the year are at 188.75.
It is interesting to note that my first thought of being behind the pace bunny is to be discouraged. To take a closer look however, I am much further ahead from where I was last year at this time. What I lost by not running over the weekend was the LEAD that I had on the bunny. Basically, I am ON pace for the goal with plenty of days left. There, I feel better about it now that I realize where I am in reality. The key is to think it all through and then get a CORRECT prospective on the situation.
The 1,000 mile pace bunny is at 189.06 miles.
The 500 mile pace bunny is at 94.53 miles.
