1. Yesterday morning I went for a run - in the rain, with no music. It's been a long time since I had either. The rain was a nice, slow steady rain and without the music, I must say it was quite refreshing.
2. This weekend's scheduled long run is 14 miles. My mileage only increases from here. I'll be headed into uncharted territory from here on out (in terms of long run distances and overall weekly totals).
3. It's the beginning of peach season around here. Next to strawberries, peaches are my favorite. We always have good, local ones around here. I stopped at the fruit stand this week and got my first basket. I had practically no cash so could only get the $3.25 basket but it's enough to take me into the weekend when I can grab some more.
Good luck with your 14 miler this weekend!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the 14 miler! I will be doing mine next week.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ran in the rain in quite awhile. It is kind of nice running in a light rain. Certainly beats the ridiculous humidity we've had lately...
I would kill for a rainy run right about now. Or even just a cloudy one!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the long run this weekend!
Good luck on your 14 miler! I think mine is coming up soon. I can't wait to hear how it goes as I am in uncharted territory too. You are going to do great!
ReplyDeleteI think it's so exciting when every long run is the farthest you've ever run! Such positive motivation! My hubby's training for his first half and he starts increasing miles soon - I'm trying to piggy back on some of his excitement :)
ReplyDeleteYour training plan must be just one week behind mine! I have fourteen scheduled for next weekend. You know, sometimes I love a music-free run--so peaceful. My favorite thing about peach season is peaches and oatmeal--YUM!
ReplyDelete#1 sounds like the perfect day to me. Rain!! I LOVE RAIN!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWOw the rain run sounds magical :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck on uping the miles I am playing the same game too!
Good luck on your long run this weekend!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your long run! I was suppose to do 14 this week also. I did it yesterday but messed up my mileage so ended up with 13.25. Oh well...did the best I could.
