On A Roll

Good run today. Earlier in the week, I'd planned on just running 10 miles. We had an all-day, outdoor event yesterday at work, and between the heat and being on my feet most of the time, I didn't think I'd have a good run. Instead, I cruised along around 8:00/mile for the entire 14 miles and generally felt pretty good.

I even managed to outpace Vic at the end. Mind you, I think we was saving himself for the race tomorrow, which I'm not running, so I didn't have to contend with the much-feared "Vic Kick".

In hindsight, I didn't run all that much this week which I'm sure kept me fresh for today. This run doubled my total to 28 miles for the week. But these were three of the best workouts I've had in a while. Next week, I'll easily get over 40 since we've got our first 20-miler on Saturday.
