week 190: Sticking with the plan

I'm not going to lie, I'm tired tonight. I ran a half marathon on Saturday, which went really well--I knocked 7 minutes of my time from September. I'm continuing to love the small town races in Wisconsin--the "crowds" (tens of people, I tell you!) are awesome, and the races are gorgeous. Long, beautiful country roads through farmland. But, racing takes its toll. My legs feel great but it definitely took a lot of energy to put together those miles. That, and for the past couple of weeks, Lime has been waking up at 4-4:30 a.m. every day, for no obvious reason. It's pitch dark and dead quiet. He's not hungry. He's still tired. Teeth? Internal clock malfunction? Who knows, I just hope it stops soon. We did a lot of fun stuff this week--proof in the photos, not the words!
