A-->B----Z, but plan it in reverse

Weds RUN 10 miles in 1:48 for 10:51 m/m pace
Thurs REST, maybe a run in the evening

The Reality is A
The Steps are B
The Goal is Z

But plan it in reverse, decide the Goal, Then look at the Reality, and find the Steps to get from A to Z. 

Where did I hear this above? I think maybe James Clear on Peter Attia's podcast.  I'll have to come back to it later. 

The MRI for liver/gallbladder was yesterday, no results yet but I'm getting to where I can ignore this stuff for awhile. Or at least suppress it. 

The run was unexpected - I ran only on a camelbak of water and didn't go out with a really planned route. I had options of a 2x 5 mile loop or a 1x 10 mile loop and still undecided on it - I just started running. Then I cut into cul-de-sacs and neighborhoods and next thing I know I'm at 7 miles and, well, how did that happen?! I've been thinking I need to round all around this little town for miles, but now here I barely left home and found 10 miles? Nice! 

The last few miles didn't feel good. I just wanted to walk but I didn't want to walk, so I slogged. What to change? I dunno, I think it was just fatigue cumulative from having done 20 miles on Sunday? Tuesday's 4 miles felt OK. And today's (Thursday) run of 6 miles will be changed, shortened, or skipped. I just need to rest or else I'll be injured.
