LATE MORNING: I know what got me out the door, but I have no idea how I didn't stop after about 500 yds. My legs were so freakin' heavy. WOW.
Time: 45:45
Distance: 4.7 miles, outside
LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING:
Time: 47 minutes
Distance: 5 miles, treadmill
As oppossed to the "runners high", I have been in a "runners trance" this weekend. It's been a trip, really. I think today's runs were more satisfying than yesterday's....simply because I ran on some tired legs and felt pretty decent after I got going. In fact, tonight at the gym, I was just in some kind of zone. Yesterday was painful, as I would expect it to be.
Nevertheless, I am nervous about JFK race. Is is really a race? or an Adventure?
I have no idea...I have no idea.
To a non-runner or even someone who runs occassionally, i think the thought is, "you must really love running.."
you know...I don't know if i would say exactly those words. What I love is the challenge I am presented with each and every time I put on my shoes and get out the door. That's the love. That's the juice.

Great weekend of running! It's amazing how much willpower it takes to get back out there, and how good it feels once you do! I added one more long run to my schedule (for Nov. 2) and then it will be time to put it all to the test...
