Personal:

No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

I was really fading after 7 miles, then at around 10 I ran into Preston and headed back out Farwest with him adding an extra 2 miles to my day.
I just realized I started this run less than 9 hours after yesterday's run. No wonder I felt so sluggish.

I thought about doing a long run today since I had some extra time, but I figured my Tuesday night/Wednesday morning double was enough of a stretch for this week. This is the first time I've cracked 200 miles in a month since March. If I run again this weekend it will be my highest mileage month since May of '09.

The run felt a little easier than yesterday and it was a little faster. I like that feeling. Only two months left before I destroy my 5k PR!
