13.1

Today I ran 13.1 miles! I was supposed to run 12 but my running partner and I decided to just add another 1.1 miles and see if we could do the whole thing! I felt GREAT!!! At Mile 11, I was so excited that we were actually doing it that I had goose bumps all over my body. I think I was on that "runners high" because I felt like I could just go and go forever! We finished strong and now I know we are definitely ready for June 12!

10 Miles in 95 Minutes

My training is going well for the Half Marathon. This morning I woke up at 4:40am to run my 10-miler this week. It was actually not as bad as I thought it would be to wake up that early. It actually felt more like I was waking up in the middle of the night. When we started our run it was pitch black and foggy on the trail we ran along the river. Kind of cool, kind of scary. But at least by the time we saw the homeless man sleeping on the trail under the bridge it was light. I was glad I was running with a buddy, although 2 women maybe isn't that much safer. I don't think running on trails in the dark will be a habit. We did make great time though. :)

8 miles in 75 minutes!
