10 things to ponder during the long run

I am training for my second, and hopefully last, marathon.  I love running but I just don't love marathoning.  It is just too long.  I'd rather run short and fast and be done with it.  That being said, here is my list of top ten recurring thoughts during the long runs (in order from early in the run until late in the run):

1. I feel great. I could do this all day. I love my sister for inviting me to run a marathon with her.
2. I wonder how many MnM's I can fit in my skirt pocket.
3. I hope that passing car understands just how far I am running.
4. Why couldn't Philippides have died after sixteen miles?
5. Time to make sure my legs haven't fallen off yet.
6. Who would know if I pulled over and took a little nap for the next hour?
7. I hope there is a porta-potty out here somewhere...
8. I wonder if my sister hates me that she wants me to do this with her.
9. Next time, a 5k.
10. Done at last.  I am awesome. I just hope I don't have to move anymore today.
