Saturday was a day that just begged for you to blast out U2′s “Beautiful Day” all day long! Got up early (0600) to get ready for a long run with Dave. We ran the route you see in the photo on the right – starting and ending at Dave’s place. At about the midway point of our run, we ended up in the middle of a race that was going on (I believe it was a 10 K race). It was nice to be surrounded by runners though, adding a little motivation to the training – at least for me.
We ran at quite a relaxed pace which had us finishing the 12 and a half miles in just over two hours. I really enjoyed the run and am looking forward to this coming weekend’s 13 mile run. Hopefully the weather will be just as nice – but I’m not going to hold my breath.
