I have a little more bounce in my step this morning. But as fun as that Saturday run was, I'm still not all the way back. Ran at 9:08 pace through a beautiful morning. Mist in the fields, pelicans in the river, a startled deer bouncing through a marsh, and a sandhill crane (I think) in the wetlands. I enjoy these morning runs, but they sure do leave me sleepy the rest of the day. I was just looking at my geeky running spread sheet. I have run more miles these last 5 weeks than I ever have in a 5 week period since I started this spreadsheet 3 years ago. And I still have 3 or 4 more runs this week. I started reading this blog 6 months or so before I actually started one of my own, and it has been inspiring. I'm looking forward to pouring in more and more miles. |
