ONCE AGAIN, THE LONG RUN
It's always hard to motivate when you party the night before, but it wasn't so bad today and I was up and running on the road since I figured it would make sense to see tough it is to run long distances on the road, but more realistically, I was tired from last night.
My goal was to just run two miles at a time to get to eight miles. The first two miles wasn't bad, but when I rested, the next two were tougher than I remember. Then it started to get really dark and somewhat cold. The next two miles got me to six and it was way too late to try to run another mile on the track.
Instead, I just ran home so my total was really only seven miles. The thing I noticed about running on the road was that it wasn't as hard on the knees. I guess the different grades and different movements along a road changes the stride a little.
