UPDATE: TODAY’S RUN: 5.8 miles total, 62 min. YT: 48.9 miles. Thanks to you dear people kindly beleaguering me all day, I got my mileage in! Believe me, I would have Never. Left. My. House. at 8 when I got home from work if it hadn’t been for you. So thank you, thank you, thank you! Also, while about 10 of you commented, over a 100 of you visited, which made a record for my two week old blog. :-) Peer pressure: It works!

TODAY”S RUN?? I found out that I have the Evil Jury Service today – meaning no long run this a.m. Meanwhile, I really need to get mileage in: I’m not behind yet, but I can feel life-at-large starting to shoot its sprightly tendrils into the deep, loamy earth of my 20 mile per week goal. (This purple prose is supposed to make you giggle.) News that I’m going to NY next week for work adds to the anxiety of getting behind…

So, here’s the plan. I’m squeezing in 2 miles this a.m. DONE. But I need you, the few happy souls who have already found their way to my blog (a.k.a. my favorite people in the world), to LEAVE ME A COMMENT that HARASSES ME (defined however you choose; friendly support is good too) to do at least 3 MILES tonight.

I know myself: Getting this body to run at night is like trying to shift Mount Fujiyama. But I think if I come home and face a wall of comments, I just might do it.

Can you help? I promise an update tomorrow, plus a “real” post.
