I did not feel like going on my run today. I kept telling myself, "Well I ran on Sunday, so this could be my rest day this week." But I wanted to rest on this Sunday, so two rest days so close together did not sit well with me. So I ran.

Felt fine running, no problems. May have ran harder than I should have.

Also I have dug out some old stuff from my high school days. I want to add some of the times I had logged to this blog. Lots of memories. And I could not believe it, I found my autographed race number number from the Shamrock Marathon 8K in 1987. I was able to get Grete Waitz to sign it. She set a world record road course 8K that day. Well they said it would be if the course got certified. I never heard if it was or not.

Looks like you are having a great milage week. Keep it up.

Are you going to go back to your 1980's hair cut too?

How about some of the 1980's running shorts?

I was thinking about trying some "parachute pants" next Winter.

And I still have the same haircut as I did then, just a little shorter now.
