Welcome to week 3

Marathon training week 3 is here and I started it with my first day off since Memorial Day. After completing the runners world running streak I decided to take an official rest day. I still cannot decide if it was beneficial or not. Today was track Tuesday and I was tired and really didn't want to run so I didn't put that much energy into it. 

Week 2 was great but I can tell that I was getting tired. It may also be all the other things going on around me. I have been cleaning and throwing out things that we haven't used in years. I am also trying to sell a bunch of stuff we don't need or won't fit into our new house, if we ever find one. I feel stressed and lost.  In a couple of weeks we officially will be homeless. Not sure what we are going to do and it's hitting me really hard this week. I'm tired, cranky, it's raining and I have a million things to do but all I want to do is lay in bed and sleep. 

I am taking an extra rest day this week so instead of training 5 days I'm only doing 4. Tomorrow is an easy 5 miles then hills on Thursday rest Friday and Saturday and then 12 miles on Sunday. Hopefully I will be "feeling" it by then. 

I also hope this lost feeling goes away. I know moving is a stressful time in everyone's life. I'm just ready to be done and settled before the kids start school and I start job hunting.
