By 'fair' I mean, absolutely gorgeous weather! I went for a another 10 miler today and it was hot out. Ok, so its only about 17 celcius but it was shirts-off-warm out there. The run itself was pretty decent too. I was a bit too excited for the first while and new i'd pay for it in the end, which I did. The last couple of miles were pretty tough energy-wise, however I didn't have any aches and pains which is great news. Well, my lower legs were a little sore towards the end which is a bit odd, so i'll have get to stretching my calves out.
I am still fighting with getting out the door even though when I am out there I am super stoked to be running. During the runs i'll start making plans to race or run different routes and what not but I can't seem to maintain that enthusiasm into the next morning when the alarm goes off. It definitely feels good to be able to just go out there and get 10 miles in though, and the weather helps as well. So for the time being i'm going to try and get a long run in on the weekend that gets progressively longer, and possibly look at doing a longer trail race later in the summer if I can find one. I would like to explore running further than my max run which was 30miles in just under 3 hours. I have never run futher in distance or in time before. I will definitely break the 3 hour barrier before I break the 30mile one though, you can bet on that.
Next goals: get a battery for my watch and 2 hr run on Saturday.
