Junk Food Runner: Good days and bad days

Good days and bad days

I know every runner has good running days and bad running days, but I wish my bad days didn't happen to fall on my race days! I was unable to do the 5 straight miles I wanted during the 10k, then today I busted out 4.5 with energy to spare. Why does this happen?!

I registered hubby and I for the Icelandic Seafood 8k today. My easy goal is to finish in under 1 hour, hard goal is to finish in under 55 minutes. After the race, which is in the evening, runners get a catered seafood dinner - shrimp, garlic-crusted haddock, jasmine rice, and a brownie. Yum! I think that is half the reason I signed up for this race lol. Looking forward to it!
