8 Miles... Is that long or short?
Today was a “long” run. It’s funny how my long runs now seemed like relatively short runs a few months ago. Although I am running considerably faster than last summer. Today was 8 miles on the treadmill. While the treadmill is boring I find it easier to run faster because I can just set my pace and go.
Since I took Saturday off to hang out with the boys and go to the basketball game I thought I was probably well rested and could bump the speed a little. I felt good through most of the run and at mile six was even thinking of running an extra mile. That thought quickly left my brain somewhere around mile 7. The last mile was a bit of an effort, but I still felt strong.
Miami is just 5 weeks away, and although I’d really like to be running a little faster I think I’m on pace to beat the 2 hour mark. Of course this is barring injury or complete melt down.
The other exciting news is that the Spinning Class is back on at the MAC. I’ve really missed this the last few weeks. I’ll report more on that on Tuesday.
