I was super excited to get back out on the streets this morning. I was a little nervous because I knew this was going to be my longest run before the race in 2 weeks. I met Laurie at the corner and we started out. She keep such a nice steady pace and I love that. We ran into a couple of dead ends and had to run on a dirt road for just a bit, but really liked the route. The weather was perfect!! I dropped her off at 9 miles and then added on a little so that I can feel a little more confident for the race. I had forgotten how nice it is to sometimes run alone on road. I enjoyed letting my mind wonder and really ponder some things in my life right now. At one point around mile 10 I think I kind of hit that runner's high because mentally and physically I felt awesome. Finished in 2:02. |
