A Wasted Day

After I did my run this morning I drove to campus. I needed to pick up some books, and decided to meet someone for lunch while I was there. Well, I forgot my ID so I couldnt get the books from the library. While I did get lunch with my friend, with all the work I have to do I dont really have time for a day filled with nothing :( It was 3:30 by the time I got home ... and I have been trying to do some research and get my laptop to speed up a bit ever since I got home. Now I have to go back to campus tomorrow (with my ID) to get those books!

Since I need the books to help me with my paper, I am another day behind...I have 9 days to finish a paper I still dont have books for. Oh yeah, and study for 7 exams while I am at it. I am on the verge of being grumpy but trying to work through it :)

Training Log
Time:  38.32 minutes  Distance:3.74 miles   Pace:  10:20min/mi
It looks like I am going to need to lenghthen the distance of my run a bit - I had originally mapped it out so it would take me about 40 minutes to complete ... and in the beginning I think it was taking me about 41 or so. Now I am finishing it a bit faster, so I think I need to run an extra block or two in order to make sure I get the full 40 minutes in as presribed by Team in Training.

The left knee hurt throughout the run, and hurt for a bit after, but is feeling ok now. Thats a good thing, I guess. In the past when I had pain during a run it continued to hurt for the rest of the day.
Progress Made
  • Signed up for Pilates today! Good thing, since the class starts this Thursday...
Lessons Learned
  • I have 9 days to finish this paper, including today - so basically 8. And I want someone to proof it first, so basically I have to finish it by Friday. I think I might throw up :(
