Ok, so I am having some trouble being motivated. Or, maybe not motivated - maybe it's just I'm having trouble finding a schedule for running. Last week I only managed to run on Tuesday (3 miles @14 minutes - sucky!). I want to keep to the schedule we have, but it's just not working out.
I know a few things about myself that are hindering my running progress.
1. I won't get up in the morning to run. I'll decided to "do it tonight instead".
2. I don't have time on Mondays because of rehearsal - and face it, I've gotta look good for Ga- I mean, rehearsal.
3. I don't like running on Fridays or Sundays. End of the week/end, I think. But, in the scheme of things, I will run on Sunday before Friday.
4. I need a swift kick in the butt.
5. If I don't do something about it now, I won't run in October.
So, here's the plan.
M: no running (no time!)
T: no running (stay late at work day)
W: running
R: running
F: no running (who runs on F?)
Sa: running
Su: running.
Do you think it will work? Here's hoping!

Ahem. I run on Fridays. Apparently you did not read the last post. :O
The only concern I might have is that you aren't giving yourself a rest day before and after your long run. For right now, that's probably not a big deal, but when we start stepping up the mileage, your body is going to need that recovery time. Just something to consider...
You're probably right. I've really gotta run on Tuesdays, huh?
Wouldn't it just figure that after making that wonderful plan, I wake up with a sore throat and a hacking cough?
Does it ever seem like the universe is conspiring against you?
Yup. Conspiring to keep me up waaaaaaaaaay to late at night so that I don't feel like getting up and running in the morning. Or in the late morning. Definitely not after lunch. Or naptime. And then it's just too dark by the time J gets home. Sigh.
