I really enjoyed last weeks workout of running slow / fast / slow / fast , etc. so I did it again this weekend. My goal was to run about 1 minute faster than my suggested long pace which I was easily able to perform today. The weather certainly cooperated as it remained in the low 70's with a slight breeze and moderate humidity. I am confident that I could have mentally and physically pushed out a few more miles.
I attempted to run some of the marathon course from memory, but in typical fashion I found myself lost throughout the neighborhoods. I observed some lovely homes and realized that the soccer season has begun in full force. Perhaps with only four weeks until the marathon the road crews will begin marking the streets for the race!
