No morning run this morning.  I am having a real struggle getting motivated to do anything right now, let alone run in the morning.  I think I am having a pretty serious case of post-marathon blues.

afternoon - 10 River Run with the boys.  Then I extended it up around the DI.  Not a bad run.  Nothing quick and my foot hurt just a little still.  (Landreth black 228.8)

evening - 3 Treadmill.  Hit a quick 3 this evening.  Felt okay again.  Nice to get a few easy miles in.  Tomorrow morning I must get up - it is the only time I can run.  (Cumulus blue 402.4)

I hear you on the post-marathon blues. I can't believe how fast I've gotten out of shape or maybe I was never in shape to begin with. Anyway I've been really busy with Driver's Ed lately, so I'm just running when I have time, like you I'm struggling with the getting up a running early in the morning, though I do have a cool-spot in my new garage for the treadmill.

That must be going around. I want to do it but I just cant get motivated to get going.

Hey I am loving running only when I want to. I have given myeslf October and November to do that in. I am feeling strong and happy. I am looking forward to training for next year, but mostly because I have given myself a break.

Totally going around. I have struggled so bad since the marathon. I just hope I can motivated again soon. Its such a strange feeling.

I can't get myself motivated for anything other than good trail runs...
