Lessons Not Learned!!!!!

Today I battled the 90 degree weather and ran 16 miles!!!! It took me a really long time but you better believe I did it!!!Many of you might not know this and hope that you don't find this crude, but the last time I ran mileage like that I wore a thong and totally chaffed my anus!!!! Since that unfortunate event in April, I haven't had trouble with chaffing in that area on any of my runs up to 12 miles. So I thought today running 16 miles wouldn't be different, BOY WAS I WRONG!!! I currently waddle and when people ask I tell them that my hip really hurts, little do they know it's because I totally got violated in the worst possible way on my run today!!!! I guess I better invest in some REAL running undies!!!

P.S. I only wear them because I thought there was nothing worse than a big wade of fabric bunched up giving the biggest wedgie....wrong again!!! :)

It's Official.....I NEED HELP!!!!

Last week I signed up for the Pocatello Marathon in Idaho. I was feeling real good about it until I had the run from heck yesterday. Here's what happened:

So this past weekend I missed my long run and decided that it would be a good idea to run it on Monday evening. Can I just say that it was 96 degrees Monday evening!!!!! So I made it 2 miles before I started PUKING my guts out!!! I then turned around and ran back home to have only run 4 miles. I was only short by 10 miles...that's ok night?:( All I could think after the run was "What the HELL was I thinking signing up for a marathon!" To make matters worse, the boy I have a fatty crush on, who is running the Pocatello marathon with me, came by last night so we could do our core workout and said "so Kylee, I saw you puking your guts out on the side of the road!" Are you kidding!!! Does this crap only happen to me?!! I swear I am cursed!!! So if you could maybe leave comments basically telling me how amazing I am, that would be great!!! I need a pick me up!!! :)
