You know that you’ve gotten into some hard core running when you find yourself saying things like “that run is only 12 miles”! This weekend was a scaled back recovery run of 12 miles, and compared to the 17 miler from last weekend that does seem like only 12 miles. It went well. I had enough gels, and I was rested for it. David, Mike, and I did a variation on the Lake route again. I like that route and haven’t gotten bored with it yet!
Traveling for work has made it challenging to get in the weekday runs. This past week, I needed to get in a 7 miler on Wednesday, but was on travel to Robins, AFB. Landing in Lexington later than expected due to yet another delay in the Atlanta Airport, I managed to hit the roads in Hartland at about 9:30 PM. Surprisingly, it wasn’t as bad as I thought that it would be and I was able to keep a pretty good pace. Training seems to be paying off.
Next weekend is going to be a 20 miler, so I’ll give you an update after that one.
