Well, we're one month in to our training and this week was an easy week--we had a stepback for our long run, meaning we only had to run five miles for our long run, so that we could gather up our strength for our step up next week--nine miles. Eek.
Because we spent a lot of our morning at the Sprint store, we ended up running our 5 miles at the gym because it was just too stinkin' hot outside by the time we got home. The run was ok (even though running on the treadmill is SO boring) and the audio book we started listening to this week is getting good. And I even woke up sore on Sunday, which hasn't happened after a run in a long time. Weird.
So now, we're on to nine miles next Saturday. I'm dreading it and wanting it to be here all at the same time; part of me is ready to get in to the really long runs and see if they're as bad as I feel like they're going to be. My goal this week on our nine mile run is to find a pace where I feel like I'm pushing myself, but where I don't feel like I have to walk after three or four miles.
