Well, today was a long run of 13 miles. It was absolutely b-e-a-utiful out there. The sun was shining and the temperature was comfortable enough that I was able to go out in just my running tights and a long sleeve shirt. No jacket or gloves required. This fantastic weather made the run so much easier! And fun! It was great to see the sunshine again and it’s just put me in the most fantastic mood. That, and the fact that the run was relatively easy fitness-wise. I’m feeling stronger, more powerful and more able to endure long runs. That, my friends, is what training is all about. I am glad to have hit that point because next week starts new territory. Next week is 15 miles, which I have never run. Fourteen is my highest mileage. Only one mile more to go so it should be a doddle, really. It’ll be in Cardiff too so that will be a fun map to look at, won’t it? And speaking of maps, here’s today’s. Enjoy your Sunday.
