I hate Daylight Savings...still

This sounds VERY familiar! Didn't I already have a posting about that??? Anyway, I got up yesterday with every intention of running, except for the fact that my legs didn't quite agree. They still felt heavy and tired from my long run on Sunday, so I decided not to push it. I lifted weights instead. So today the pressure was on to get out the door for a run. Except for the fact that it was so freaking dark out!!! At 7:00!!!

I can't win. But I did manage an OK 3+ miler. After two miles of running faster than my target pace (9:48), I suddenly got very tired and slow. The result of poor fueling last night and this morning. Also the result of just plain running too fast on my easy run! I really need to slow down a little so I won't burn out and won't be tired for my tempo run on Friday. I think I might have to learn how to use my Garmin's pace alert function!!!
