AM - 15 miles. Ran 10 w/ Andrea. The forecast called for 100% chance of rain this morning, so we were lucky to make it through 7 miles before the heavens opened up on us. After Andrea headed indoors, I kept going and it was an absolute downpour for the last couple miles. A hot shower and breakfast felt really good afterwards. PM - 8 miles. It continued to rain all day, but stopped before I went back out, and I had another very pleasant run. Yesterday I read a good article written by Jennifer Pharr Davis. If you've never heard of her - she set the record for hiking the Appalachian Trail this summer. I liked this quote: “If you don’t fail at something at least once, then you haven’t set your goals high enough.” [Here is the article from Blue Ridge Outdoors]
