Rainy, windy morning. Colleen and I volunteered for USA fit marathon and half. Up at 4:15 to help set up and man the Ask me questions station. She had tougher task of directing traffic. Wind was blowing unsecured canopies down plus rain made for interesting morning. Start delayed for 45', runners mostly waiting in cars or under canopies until start... some turned in their chips and went home; met some very nice folks. We had ponchos but feet got soaked/cold.Left after start. Took nap and even though it was drizzling time to run, just didn't feel like going to gym plus it was playoffs were on.

Glad for an indoor workout,just taking dog out this morning for a few minutes in short sleeve was quite chilly. Watched part of 9 Days Of Glory about 84 Olympics in LA. Very motivating, my suffering seemed pretty timid. Volunteering Sunday for a local marathon (Sugar Land)looks like it will warm up for runners.

Brisk 25 woke up late, forgot to set alarm, was going to go to gym but no time so out the door. Interesting running observation on intervals my HR usually avg late 150's to 160, today avg 148; does cold have any effect? All went well, hands got cold with thin gloves.

I knew it was going to be a tough workout hoping second half of 9 days of glory would keep mojo going. Got thru first two intervals but not third; was it physical or mental, guess it doesn't matter i just didn't have it.
