Progress

Run: 13 miles

Saturday's long run was pushed to Sunday to accommodate my son's football activities. Thankfully, my running buddies were able to adjust their schedules as well so I wouldn't have another long and lonely run. I also managed to remember my watch, two Gu's and thank you to the running God's (as well as a nice little uproar from the running community) we had water on the trail.


So I have another 13 miles under my belt. The pace wasn't anything impressive but it was much better than the last two long runs and progress is progress! I think we shaved more than 10 minutes off of last weekend's 13 miler. It was nice to have Christy doing her usual distraction/cheer leading techniques. I wore my water belt for the most of the run and it wasn't as bad as I remembered it. It's a good thing, too, considering I'll be wearing every Saturday from now on. I also need to invest in a head lamp because as the mileage increases, my start time will need to get earlier.
