Monday a.m workout: Insanity Pure Cardio
It was much easier to get up this morning after a relaxing weekend.
I am reading Gone Girl right now and I am completely hooked already. I haven't given myself much time to read lately, but I am trying to change that and this book is motivating me to as well!
I mentioned on Friday that I had started thinking about my goals for the Marshall University marathon that is in TWO weeks!
I always try to have at least two goals for my races. Goal A: my goal if the race goes picture perfect; Goal B: my goal that I can live with; and Goal C: my goal of last resort.
And if Goal C fails...there are 23 more letters in the alphabet! So here are my goals for Marshall:
A: Finish under 4:30
B: Finish faster than my slowest marathon time
C: Don't die/get hurt
I honestly might have to settle for Goal C. And that's OK. I want to have fun and give it all I have, but I have to keep reminding myself that this is my comeback race. I took a lot of time off and there is always 2013.

I LOVE your goals. I think if/when I attempt my first marathon, goal C is gonna be the one for me!!! I'm sure you'll be amazing. Can't wait to read all about it.
