| Today I did my long run of 8.4 miles. It was the farthest that I have run in three or more years. Physically, I felt the best that I have since I started running again. For the first time in a long time, I ran with no pain. That was a relief. Mentally, the run was very tough. I forgot how long I can be out on the road during a long run. It was a struggle but I just kept my feet moving and over an hour and a half later, I crossed my own personal finish line. I know it will get better. As I get in better shape and lose weight, I will run faster which should help quite a bit. I feel like I am on the verge of a breakthrough in running. I look forward to it so that I will finally be able to enjoy my runs instead of just laboring through them. Those 40 lbs. sure went on easy. What isn't easy is lugging them around during my runs. |
