Yea! I got out for a 9.79-mile run before my calltime this morning!
And I felt great!
That’s mostly what I’ll say for now. That, and it was a perfect 55 degrees with rising sun and clear blue skies. A simply breathtaking morning. I felt fast, my legs felt responsive, and all was good with the world. Here are the deets:
Oh, I guess I should also say I wore compression socks and had a 2x Caffeine PowerGel at the beginning of my run. Now, off to prep for my day!
Oh, and I guess I should also say that there were a couple of well-paced men who were keeping apace with me but I overcame them near the end of my run! That helped my time, but generally my miles were pretty good (7:24s), a little uneven because of the hills and road traffic.
Oh, and I guess I should ALSO say: I saw an old man pooping in the park! Poor guy. I feel his pain. Es “toot” mir leid.
