Well, I successfully went to bed last night at 8 p.m. I did not, however, get a very good sleep. I seemed to be on the edge of awake for most of the night... DH came to bed, the dog chased the cat, the kid climbed in around 3 and kicked me for the rest of the night. I remember thinking that I should have DH put her back to bed, but then decided that he would turn on all sorts of lights and talk and that would just wake me up more than her constantly kicking feet. I still have a little cough, and a puffy face, but I took some Zicam and here I am....
I really feel like a slug this week. I think I should be running more than I have (oh, ya I really should be.. ) but at the same time I feel like I need to rest up... I am obsessed about the mileage I have to do on Saturday and crazy about the fact that Saturday's projected high is 25 degrees!!! UGH I hate the cold. I've been spoiled, and now on the longest run of the year I have to be outside for 4 flipping hours!!!??? OMG!!! I am crazy about this stupid Marathon... I have 6 more 13+ mile runs before the race. How am I going to make it!?
I can tell that I am anxious/nervous/stressed. I have been overeating and not Sparking like I should. I need to at least get one part of my life under control and it would be nice if food were it. I am expecting a gain tomorrow at WW and I have to go and face the music... Who would think that a girl who runs 16 miles in one day would gain weight.... Strange, but true.

Most folks that I know have maintained or gained weight during marathon training. You're not alone!
What do you mean "Sparking"? Just curious!
SparkPeople.com - a nice way to keep track of food and exercise - LynneDurham suggested it - I've been doing it for a couple of months - though obviously slacking the last few weeks!
