Marathon training

Week eleven, day one

This one goes to eleven!

It was a good thing I checked my schedule Sunday night. When I look ahead on the schedule, I usually focus on the long runs so I didn’t even notice that Monday’s runs got longer too. So yesterday I had 3 miles and not the 2 I expected. I still ran at lunch, though, because yesterday was my last opportunity to do so.

Friday will be my last day at the court of appeals. I can’t believe I’ve been there almost five years. It’s been a fantastic place to work and I will really miss it, but it’s time to move on. As of next Monday, I’ll be senior counsel to a private firm practicing commercial litigation. Their offices are up by the Galleria, which is why I have to move my lunchtime workouts to before work.

I’m excited, but nervous too. I hope private practice is like riding a bike! Then again, if I can run a marathon, I’m pretty sure I can try a case. Wish me luck!
