RECAP Life is pretty ridiculously busy for me these day. I basically study for the bar, work, and run. Occasionally, I turn on the television to find out that Michael Jackson is still dead. Still, I am proud to say marathon training has stayed on track. I think the busier I am, the more important it is to me to fit in the runs. Last week was what I think of as my first really big week with a long run of fifteen miles. It hurt, but it got done, and I feeling pretty confident that baring injury this marathon is going to go well. Here are the numbers

Next Week’s Goals:

2. Don’t go crazy.
lol about mj. i hear you on being a little busy, but i’m supposed to be on vacation! still can’t seem to find the time, weird.
good luck studying and not going crazy. use your runs as your chill/zone out time and to pound out the stress/frustration of the bar!
Good luck. I remember when my wife was studying for the bar we wuld go several weeks at a time without seeing each other.
Heh heh. I like the final point “Don’t go crazy”. That one *definitely* needs to go onto my training plan!
Just wanted to stop by and say good luck this week, I’ll be thinking of you. At least NY does the essays first, believe me, it’s better that way. You can then dump all of that extra information out of your mind and get ready for the multistate the following day.
GOOD LUCK, and be sure to not talk to anyone about the test during your lunch hour. It won’t help things at all. Trust me.
