Today I ran from the top of veyo hill...whimped out and didn't want to climb the 'hill' this morning. This was a great run for me. I did not look at my pace the whole time, I just ran what felt good. I ended up with a 8:32 average pace for the 18 miles.That would put me at a 3:45 marathon! From last saturday to today I was able to cut off 29 seconds per mile and my body feels great. Hopfully the taper will help my body mend and be able to perform at its peak. I am hoping that the stars, planets etc. line up for me on October 4th so that I can pull off that kind of a time.
It was good to meet Steve, Clyde and Logan after their run. Of course they flew by me...but the inspired me to push a little harder coming out of Winchester area. We talked for a bit...thanks guys for the support!
I noticed that I hit 69 mjiles for the week, that is by far my personal best. Now it is time to start cutting back and work on quality miles.
