Well I lied to myself about not running today, but I realized that there was no pressing need to hurry on this Saturday's run. We had nothing going on till later (moving my wife's daycare room's around in her facility), so I could just enjoy the run. I ran 20.22 miles at an overall 7:05 pace in 2:23. I did through in about 6 faster miles, but mostly a nice and easy enjoyable run with the temperature at 30ish degrees when I started (6:00am). I started from my house this morning and ran out to Bannock Highway by Indian Hills and saw a nice Buck cross the road. I then turned by Indian Hills School and ran down by Ross park, and turned on 4th street, and then zig zagged all the way home to stretch the distance to get to 20 miles. I only took four sports beans on the run and drank nothing, nor did I eat before I ran. I felt strong the whole run. I ran three miles on the race course that I ran last Saturday, but the opposite direction.
