Perfect running weather... and a perfect husband to let me enjoy it.
Today's run was scheduled for the treadmill, but I managed to squeeze in a quick 3 miles outdoors when my husband offered to take a short break from work to watch our son. With sunny skies and about 60 degrees, you just can't ask for much better than that.
Unfortunately, where I'm at in my training schedule, I don't have much variety to look forward to. I have about 2 weeks of 3 mile runs, 4 days a week. That almost seems too easy. Of course, I do understand the reason behind it... after these two weeks, my training goes to 5 days a week and you don't want to make a huge jump in the number of miles you run from one week to the next. The question is whether or not I'll be able to remind myself of that fact for the next 8 runs and now allow myself to go further just because I feel good. Now that I'm running on a regular basis, I find I constantly want to push myself to see just how far I can go. If I expect to be in this thing for the long haul, I should really listen to what the experts have to say. I guess it's time to test just how much patience I really have...
