A well earned rest !

It was a fight against my running legs not to run last night. I felt really anxious and I just want this marathon to be over. My focus is already looking ahead and trying to decide on a 50k or another marathon in a few months. Yep the mind was dreaming up all sorts of races and what I am going to do. But it took a couple of good hard slaps on the face to get myself back to this weekend. Focus baby, just focus. No nerves, no fuss, I have done the training and feel good about what I have done. I sat down and read a few stories about the comrades in South Africa and yes the mind wondered off there as well, but it was all for a good cause as I was reading different peoples race plans and preparations. I will plan mine out tomorrow night after a 12-15k run.
I have done this in my head a few hundred times but I will actually write it down and read it.
Oh yeah it's funny how when you write something out then read it and go "What does that mean ?"
I watched Fat Brother last night, ate very well and lay on the couch and thought, Wow this is how the other half live !
