A Little Harder Than the Last

So after yesterday's day of rest, my motivation level was a pretty strong Low today.  I dreaded my run all day long.  Actually, I dreaded it for 2 days.  It was a wild week at the office and I should have been looking forward to getting out, breathing fresh air and stretching my legs.  But I wasn't.  I was more like this:

Throwing myself in the floor and snarling my nose.  I don't wanna :(

But nevertheless, I did it.  I ran 3 miles today.  I feel like I should have ran more, although 3 was still on with my training schedule.  But even after I got done today, I can't say I felt good.  Not that "runner's high" or that sense of accomplishment.  Nope.  This is more like how I felt about today's run:

Thank you sweet niece for helping me share how I felt today!  She's such a good model.  And will scream when she sees that Angus was behind her.

I'm getting a little concerned about this little shin split I think is coming on.  I hope it doesn't get any worse.  Needless to say, I'm not looking forward to my 6 mile run tomorrow.  See above picture.
