Long Runs, Again

This weekend will be full of long runs...one is planned for Saturday morning, and then another on Sunday. The distances covered will be much. It will be a grand time!

The training seems to be going really well! With each run I feel more confident that the race I am planning on running in November goes good!

Good Week

Hello from California!

Yes, it is true. It is a true story. That I am here, it is true.

And man, is it great! A very nice time it has been, even though I have not really done anything too spectacular. Since this is a running blog, I will mainly talk about this incredible sport.

I have run everyday except for the day I got here and one other rest day. It has been a really, really good week of running. I got in a 16 miler on Tuesday, then 10 milers on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, a 26 mile run on Saturday, and capped off the week with 20 on Sunday, making for a 94 mile week. I am amazed that my legs feel really good. Like I could go play soccer right now. Or tennis. My legs feel really, really good, like I could go run right now. I won't run right now, but I guess I could. It would probably not be a good idea, though.

I had some chafing on the inner thighs, but a little Vaseline made everything better.

Well, I guess that is all there is to say. Oh yeah, I ran with a running group last Sunday. It was good to run with people again!
