Dear James, Daniel and Emily,
Today's Run
So my weekday runs have settled into the 5-6 mile range in recent weeks. Another 6 mile one today. At the risk of being repetitive this is still just astounding to me. The idea that I would reach the point where I could run 6 miles and feel like that was just another run, instead of like I had really pushed myself, just crazy. And that's an important point that I picked up some where, that the goal of the training runs was to leave a little on the table, not to push to exhaustion, save that effort for races.
I have been trying to vary my routes lately, still running all over the West Side, but trying to vary some so I don't get too bored with the same old route. And with my long runs I will definitely have to change things up some in order to avoid having to run in circles.
