Well, the good news is that I have been SO insanely busy that I haven’t had time for the Taper Crazies to set in.  i.e. NO checking the weather at all, let alone 7000 times a day; no dwelling on every little ache and pain in my body, imagining that each one is a crippling injury that will screw up my race; no obsessing over mile splits and race goals (ok – I did that last week on the plane to DC, but not at all since then).

What have I been busy with?  My law firm (i.e. ME) is hiring another attorney.  And moving into a bigger office space (same building at least!).  And, as you can imagine, there are a million and one things that need to be done to hire a new attorney.  And this Toys For Tots stuff is way more time consuming than I imagined.

It’s all good.  Just insanely busy.

My running is feeling fabulous.  Cut back on the mileage, increase the intensity.  I feel so excited and ready for next weekend!

Here’s another thing I’ve been busy with:  Picture session with me and the new attorney, with casual outdoor photos for our website so we don’t look so lawyerly!

Don’t worry, I’m forcing myself to stop work stuff and rest at 8:00 each night!  Whatever doesn’t get done, doesn’t get done.  It’ll be there for me after the marathon.
