Today was a tough mental run. I almost talked myself out of running before I got out the door because there was snow on the ground and it looked really cold. I can handle running with snow in January and February, but May?! Luckily it wasn't as cold as it looked. When I finally got out the door I thought maybe I would cut it short, but then I would feel like a slacker. Then around mile 1 my belly started hurting. I am ok running through aches and fatigue but probably shouldn't run through pain. I walked for a block and then decided to tough it out. In the end I got all 4.4 miles done but not very energetically. Today my son is having a spiderman birthday party for his 4th birthday. I still have a lot of preparations to do for the party. It is going to be a busy and fast day with so much going on. Luckily I ordered a cake instead of making one. This is the first time I have ordered a cake, it felt weird at first because I usually make a fun cake for my kids but I think those days might soon be over.
