Saturday Long Run

When my alarm went off at 5:00 this morning, I put on the weather channel and found the temperature in the lo 70s. It actually felt decent when I went outside. That all changed once I started running. I believe I was soaking wet 2.5 miles into the run. The plan was to run 13 but I missed a turn somewhere on the route; I ended up adding something at the end to get it to 12.25. Close enough for me.

I finished reading the second book that I took with me last week for the flight to Seattle and cruise. I finished Tim Van Wagoner's in the long run late into the cruise last week. Its a running novel; not bad but the race day stats are definetely fiction imho. The second book I read on my running cruise was Marc Bloom's God On The Starting Line. I preferred this one of the two; I got both over a year ago so glad that I've finally read them.

The plan for tomorrow is a little bit of slow lite mileage on the trails at Burroughs Park. Hopefully its somewhat dry out there; I probably should bring my swim gear just in case!
