My legs are dead, dead I tell you!

It is a taper week, I don't know what I would do if it wasn't, I am barely hanging on here!  Not only are my legs halfway to dead but everytime I run I feel like I am going to puke, I have no idea what is going on.  So, last night I needed to get in a 60 minute run, I had to do the run on the treadmill because it was late and way too dark to go outside, 30 minutes in my stomach starts acting up and my legs don't want to go any further.  So I start walking a minute every 10 minutes, that was the plan anyway...I then had to walk every 5 minutes, then every three minutes and the running that I was doing in between could hardly be called running, it was more of a strange shuffle, I am pretty sure I looked a bit like Gollum from the Lord of the Rings trilogy, it was so absurd I actually laughed at myself!  The good news is that I made it through and I know that I can get through a little adversity on a run.  My brick today was more of the same, I felt like I needed to vomit about a tenth of a mile into the run, oh well.  Hopefully this will pass soon.

On a completely unrelated note, 30 Rock was so funny last week, I just caught up on the DVR'd shows and I was laughing so I hard I had tears in my eyes and I even snorted once, "I'd like you all to meet Tom, Tom Selleck", so funny,  I can't believe that it didn't win the Golden Globe!  I enjoy Glee too, but come on!!!
