Getting There!

I know I emailed you and Angie earlier and told you that I was worried about my progress last night. But I looked at my schedule last year, and I'm not terribly off. I just need to make sure I start doing a 15 miler once a week and I MUST get back to hills. That will help with my pace, more than anything.

I was too excited to sleep this am, truth be told. I was up by 4:30, in fact! (I'm so excited I could cry. For real.) So I hit the road 30 minutes early and did a 12 miler. Boy, was the end hard! But I did it! And I was surprised that my average pace was around 10:30 per mile. I thought it was slower. So that made me happy. And I did a pretty good job at hydration.

Back at it next week!

Wow! Am I impressed or what? Yes, I am. I'll still hoping to work up to 12 miles.

I'm taking today and tomorrow off. Did the 6.6 miles yesterday and plan to do 8 on Monday so am resting the legs in between here. Hope it helps on Monday.

Oh, geeze. I just checked your weather. Did you get rained out of your long run? I hope not!
