8 miles today. This is the longest that I have ran since the marathon. It felt incredible. Sweat in my eyes. Gray t shirt soaked. It was 52 degrees. I still wore shorts. It was good to take back the roads again. I could see forever on the country road I ran on. Throughout my training it was a tunnel with corn on both sides. I felt all of the familiar pains. . .
It has been an interesting weekend. Friday night I sat in a tree stand in the middle of nowhere . . .Saturday I was in downtown Chicago . .and today I ran . . .this weekend covered alot of the elements that make up "me."
I am so thankful that I did not tear myself up on my marathon.
