Thursday I found myself too nervous to run. I woke up at 5 a.m. without the help of an alarm. I had a job interview scheduled at 1:15 p.m. But I kept putting off my run. I didn't want to use my energy running - I had an interview to worry about. So at 8: 30 p.m., 6 hours after the interview I finally went for my run. Summer weather has returned to Texas and even with the sun down, it was still in the high 90's.
My husband rode his bike on the same road while I ran - the idea was that he was near by for my protection. Fifty minutes seemed like 2 hours. It was hot, and it was humid, and it was after 8:30. Finally with the help of 17 good songs, I finished. As for my husband, he beat me home. When he couldn't find me on the road, he headed home. So much for protection.
This Saturday I'm scheduled for an 18 mile run. But, because of my job possibility, I have a meeting Saturday morning. My husband has redeemed himself because he has agreed to be my support team on Sunday, when I will run 18 miles by myself starting at 5:30 a.m.
