3 miles in the morning. Woke up a bit late, so I had to catch up with my running group (Little Ginge, Mad Max, Mtallred and Splints). 5 miles easy today out past the spectrum. I think I'm finally starting to understand what Scott McDougal said in 'Born to Run', and I paraphrase: "They weren't running because they wanted a smaller waist line, bigger sponsors or even a 1st place trophy. They were running for the sheer joy of it. They were running because there was nothing that they would rather be doing, and there was no one they's rather be doing it with."
