I had a great run on Monday morning. It was 4 miles, and I was trying for a little speed. I've been doing the longer runs at a little over a 9-minute/mile pace, so I thought I should try to kick it up a notch for my shorter runs. I did this one with an 8:48/mile average pace, and I felt really solid. It's funny, because I have always felt wiped by the afternoon when I run in the morning. Yesterday, I couldn't remember in the afternoon if I had run that morning. I can usually more than tell that from how I feel. I guess I'm an athlete now.
Michael was right there with me. He let me go ahead and work on my speed, and he's getting better and better. He seemed to have had a great run.
I slept like a baby last night, so I must have worked hard, but it was a great night's sleep. This weekend is another milestone--16 miles. I'm a little nervous but more excited than nervous. I'll be totally prepped and ready! Now I just need to get new sneakers...
