I blew off yesterday and did another flattish 9 miler this morning.

"Flat" around here means right around 500 feet of climbing in 9 miles, and nothing over 10% except the very first hill after I turn out of my lane, which isn't long. I have only this one loop I can do that's this flat. I've realized that my bad habit habit of throwing my head back comes from always running hills ... on an ascent, I want to look at something besides the road two feet in front of me. I'm going to try to roll my eyes up more, and see if that helps.

I've also realized that I'm just not going to be ready to do Columbus marathon in any time that would make it worth it to me. I'm inclined to run the half just so I won't be sitting home on race day - but I need to convince myself that it's worth the effort to run a support race, or to do "half" of anything. I also have to decide whether or not to sign up for Disney ... there are a whole lot of downsides to that one, and the guy at the LRS pretty much talked me out of it the other day, but now I'm back to being on the fence.
