Today I completed my final long-ish run for my upcoming marathon! On the way to meet my running buddy, I was lovingly greeted by morning.
Running update: An 18.25-miler in the warmth that this morning brought was HARD. I breezed through a long 22-miler last weekend, and struggled to even get to 18 today. Luckily I already have my other long runs under my belt so this wasn't a huge game-changer. I've officially passed the cumulative 300 mile mark for this summer/fall's round of training, and have logged about 750 total miles since the beginning of 2010. Yikes! Think I can get to 1,000 before the year ends?

Question of the Day: Ever amazed by what your body can do? If so, what can it do? (Keep it clean, folks.)
Beautiful morning pictures!
ReplyDeleteI sometimes think I'm just surprised that I can keep going sometimes... when I worked at the bakery, there was one day I had been standing on my feet for 10 hours there... went to a concert after where I stood on my feet again... and then hit the pillow 19 hours after I had gotten up!
oh I am constantly amazed by what my body can do-every day is an adventure, and I give thanks that it tolerates the beatings i put it through. :)
