Week 3: Long Run

9 miles today with Teddy. Started about 11pm. Great midnight run. About the last 1.5 miles I couldn't feel my ass. My lungs were fine. My legs were sore, but I finished very, very strong. Eating before the run and throughout the day does make a difference. I'm going to drink an XS and head to bed. A few notes about today...

1) It was SuperBowl Sunday. Warner and Fitzgerald played like warriors and came up short. This was probably the best game I've seen on the last Sunday ever.
2) I got about 8 hours sleep. Sleep is good and much more important that I give it credit for.
3) I had to stop and stretch twice during the run to keep my back from cramping up.
4) Teddy won't stop playing now that we're home. I gave him a bath and shell dried him. Now he's fired up and going to town playing fetch and dominating his stuffed polar bear. I really home our kids don't have this kind of energy.
