Had no urge to get out the door today and run, and I am not sure why. Probably because tonight starts my week of working Midnight's...which I really hate. Tomorrow will most likely be a rest day as my body will be out of whack from the sleep disruption. Then I will try to adjust and get some miles in Wednesday. But going back to today, I made myself go. I wanted to get in 8 but figured 6 would be ok. No set route just ran along and let the Garmin keep up with the miles. After 4 miles I knew I could do at least 6. The at 5 I decided instead of turning towards home I would keep going another mile. So I ended up with 8 in the end. I also found myself running a little faster. I think it is because I thought I might stop earlier than I expected and figured I would make the most out of what I did.
