Another week, another 7 mile run, plus kickball tonight, that's some #fitwinning!

Dear James, Daniel and Emily,

Today's Run

Another 7 mile run!

Another 1K plus calories burned!

How sweet that feels! Oh yeah, I could have run more at the end, but biological needs slowed me down (had to go potty real bad). And I did skip Tuesday's run, but that's okay in the long run. Because I feel good! And I could have run longer this morning had I not have to stop. I am feeling confident about that 10 mile run in August, and the half marathon, because I am getting stronger every week.

I changed up my route a little, ran up to Manitou, then ran down the Midland Trail. Had to get my feet wet when I got to the place where there was no bridge yet, but it is getting close to completion, and that's a fun route to add. Like I was telling my brother this weekend I avoid getting bored on my runs by taking different routes, varying things so it never feels like I am doing the same thing over and over. Because I think one of the dangers to keeping up with fitness is boredom, you have to keep doing different things to keep it fresh, in my case that means running different places and routes.
