Still, I love running. And so I still run three days a week. But since the marathon it hasn't been the same. The mileage is less, the pace perhaps not as ...
My goal was to get my average pace per mile below 7:30 (up until Sunday I was at 7:37). Oh, how I missed the bridge! I always run based on how I feel - on Sunday I felt pretty good. I especially miss running across the George Mason Memorial Bridge, which drops me off at the Thomas Jefferson Memorial. This weekend I finally resolved to hit double-digit miles again. The mileage is less, the pace perhaps not as intense as it could be, and my shoes are in desperate need of upgrade.
