Redemption

The good thing about having a bad run is that it makes you look forward to getting out the next day and redeeming yourself. That is exactly what I did today.

I headed out about 0830 after a Clif bar and some coffee. After yesterday's 17 miler, it took me a couple miles to get into the mood. But after that, things were smooth sailing. I was going to run today by feel and I felt really good. I finished 8 miles in 1:06.58 and a pace of 8:21. My splits were as follows: 8:44, 8:49, 8:35, 8:32, 8:12, 8:10, 8:02, & 7:51. I wish all my runs could feel this good.

I finished the week with a total of 43 miles.
