Time/Weather
Playlist: Same as yesterday BUT I actually outran the playlist(!), so I ended with another dose of FreeWill
Shoes: Nike LunarGlide (I've been enjoying the Frees better but I left them at work. D'oh!)
Running Partner: Mollie (who I actually ended up taking back to the house because she couldn't hang!)
Course:
Pace/Distance
How it Felt: Seriously, it felt really good. It's been feeling better and better each time. I find myself looking forward to it more and more and thinking about running also. I am certain there will come a point where that is not the case, where it feels like a chore to get out or where I flat out refuse to do it, so I figure I'd better get some time in while it feels good. So as you can see, today was a bit slower than I've been going, but I think I'm figuring out that I have to sacrifice speed for distance - at least right now. But again, I feel like I could have gone longer. I wanted to make sure and be able to go further tomorrow (which is actually today since I didn't get this post done last night). I felt pretty good throughout, at first I was feeling a weird sort of tingling each stride in my right shin. It was more towards the inside of the shin than what I normally feel on the outside. I tried to pay more attention to my stride when I felt the pain. So I shortened up and focused more on landing midfoot. After a minute or so of focusing on my stride, the feeling went away and did not return. I had slight lower back pain but it too went away. All in all, a good run. My longest yet. One last thing, add spicy tuna wraps to the list of what not to eat before running. I swear I was burping up Srirachia the whole time. And I love Srirachia, just not while I'm gasping for air and it's coming out instead of going in. Sorry if that's TMI. See you tomorrow (which, again, is actually today, but whatevs)
