Wednesday and Thursday i did stuff but i can't remember. It's logged in mapmyrun.com though. I do remember trying to run Wednesday but finding that I lacked anything. I mean, my legs were just dead logs to me. My mind wasn't that willing either. So, I walked it, and this is fine.
Friday, at the last minute, I was able to go to Salem with Jeff and his daughter Lacey and watch Matthew run in a track meet. He ran the 1500 (second place: 3:58), and he was the pace-setter for the 5000 (running a 4:23 mile for the first mile, which is pretty much a jog for him). We spent yesterday (Saturday) just hanging out with Jeff's family and then going to visit my mom. I told her that she needed to start training for the T.C. marathon, and in true Mikey fashion she just blinked, shrugged, and said, "okay, I could probably do that." Of course, she realistically assessed that a marathon is 26 miles and that is, as I like to say, "a long way". But she also has that classic Oliver "what the hell??" attitude.
So, yes, we potentially have a 5th Olly on the Ollython team.
Not much else to report. Today I'm doing the entire Rage in the Sage course and hoping, praying, to get it done in <2 hours. :( I had a dream last night that I was running it and that they kicked me off the course for being too slow. My goal is really just to finish it, and I have it in my head that if I'm not finished after 2 hours, they won't let me finish.
Anyway, I'm off to run it now, later.

oh my, the Mikeroney on the Ollython, oh my! I think she should just take care of herself for the moment. As for you, you've got 2.5 hours to complete the Rage! I know you can do it, especially when you get hose competative juices pumping and the adrenaline!!!! Just keep your head up high!
