This weekend Jay and I participated in the Capital Alumni Network Softball Tournament with fellow USC Alumni. Thankfully I had Friday off to squeeze in a “shorter” run on my own.
This run was unusually tough. I was able to sleep in until 7 am thanks to the relatively humidity free weather. It felt nice to be out a little later, but I was not used to the sun beating down on me. I kept telling myself that once I was in Georgetown I was half way there.
I choose this run because I am very comfortable with the route. I really miss running among the monuments. My mistake was my break in front of the WWII Memorial. I stopped for a good 5 minutes to refuel and stretch. I was done, I could just feel it. Weighing my options I decided not to visit a friend at work and push on through. I am glad I pushed myself to complete the run but disappointed myself for not going further.
Jay and I have to run 18 miles this coming weekend. We have reached the high mileage!!! Now where to run?
