What a beautiful morning we are having in Mississippi today! \u00a0The weather for my morning run was 83F and only 45% humidity!!! \u00a0The sun is shining and we have a light breeze. \u00a0Ideal running weather! \u00a0I had a great time out there.<\/p>\n
Completed my 20 miler. \u00a0Glad to be done with long runs for another week, though.<\/p>\n
A year ago, when I was training for my first Marathon, I remember watching my training schedule for that dreaded 20 miler. \u00a0That last “Big Run” before race day. \u00a0I was terrified of that run.<\/p>\n
On advice of some of my friends at the running group, I had modified my training schedule to include that 20 miler and then two weeks before the race, a 23 miler. \u00a0Holy cow…those runs scared me to death!<\/p>\n
What a difference a year makes!<\/p>\n
I looked at my training schedule yesterday and saw that 20 miler on tap for today. \u00a0I wasn’t overjoyed to see it but just kinda shrugged it off and figured “Oh well…” \u00a0Last year, I had no fingernails left by this time in the training from nerves!<\/p>\n
MFH (My Favorite Husband) made me pancakes this morning to fuel me through this mornings long run. \u00a0I ate one and had a cup of coffee and then headed on out the door. \u00a0It was a lovely run and truly an “Easy Effort.” \u00a0Gotta love it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
