12 miles today

Liesl met me this morning for a lovely long run. The weather was perfect, albeit a bit windy in spots. I felt really strong for the first 6 or so miles and then I started dragging a bit. I have a hard time maintaining a LSR pace. Dave usually does that for me. Sadly, that job fell into poor Liesl's lap today. I swear she had to tell me slow down at least 3 times each mile. She kinda saved me from bailing on the run today so thank you, Liesl! After the run, I've been a lazy bag of bones. No kids this weekend so I'm able to lay on the couch and watch Everybody Loves Raymond episodes I dvr'd all week. The weather is gorgeous out and I should be out washing my vehicle but I can't be bothered. Tomorrow will be a much better day for more physical exertion. Dave and I were able to run together-separately today, on our anniversary. He managed a (speedy!!!) 4 miler up in NYC. He's really amazing. Still running even though he's not firing on all fours from that cold my dad gave him (*wink* just teasing, Dad!) Speaking of NYC, I threw my legs in the hat and applied for the NYC marathon. A chance to run in my favorite place in the world? Oh hell yeah! Sign me up:) Time to kick back and relax the afternoon away. Long runs aren't so bad when you can sprawl out on the couch with a cat or two and zone out afterwards;) Til tomorrow...
