For Every Job that Must Be Done*

And the first week of training is officially in the books.  Here are just some of the things that I've taken from this first week.

- It's difficult to start training and upping your mileage when your boss is on vacation. There are many days where I just wanted to sit on my butt instead of doing a run, but I did what needed to be done. #ineedavacationfromhervacation

- Speed work is going to always be a mental challenge. I've already done three weeks of it and I am not looking forward to next Wednesday. #amitoooldforthetrack?

- Long runs will need to start earlier and earlier. I swear at times I felt like I was swimming and my hair looked like I had been. #summertimehumidugh

- Only 15 more weeks to go and in some ways that actually doesn't seem like it will be as daunting as it first looked to be. #maybeicandothis?

- Running with an audiobook on the lawn runs might be the key to making it through these miles. #storytime!

- I'm going to need at least two more pairs of shoes. #imnotevenupsetbythis
