and so it begins...

again. i'm starting the 18 week marathon training schedule today. i am tweaking the first several weeks to keep my long runs up since i'm somewhat still conditioned from the marathon. there is a race here in ATL 18 weeks from now so i figure i'll train for it and hope i can remain injury free. oh, and i finally lost a toenail. the one that died way back in late spring. it turned white after that, then purple for a longer time, then white. well, it finally fell off, and i have a second one about to fall off. and i have a third one that is now dark purple (from the marathon). i have such purrrrdy feet!  :/

i got up at 7am and ran 3 miles in the rain this morning. it was awesome. my watch died. that was not awesome. i just put new batteries in both my watch and heart rate monitor before the marathon. they've both been acting strange and now they are both dead. ugh.this is when i wish money grew on trees since i just can't go buy a new watch.
