got to sleep in a little (6.15!) on sunday...always nice...met a group of folks at the rock for the long run...which for me was not all that long....13!...we were doing two 7 mile loops on the trail with the option to cool down/do drills on the last mile in...sweet...not even two full loops...
as i headed off on that first loop i could feel i was not particularly comfortable..but it wasn't one thing in particular...it was just a general tired feeling...took it easy until i felt like i was a bit warmed up...didn't feel warmed up until the I-35 bridge...geez...that seemed like forever...was already passed by the main group (always happens) so i was on my own for pacing...and began to pick it up on the other side of the trail...it felt good...was hoping that i could maintain the pace for the rest of the workout...
stopped at mopac for water and headed back out again...i was shooting for under 2.15 for the 13 miles...pulled it off in 2.02 finishing the 14 in 2.12 yeah! that was a happy thing...again finished on my own...but was felling super happy about a good run...had to play some mental games...but i need to practice that...had a stitch in my side at one point and had to problem solve to get it feeling better...no problem...glad to finish strong...
spent the rest of the day doing homework...prepping for a mid term, cleaning, learning about the 10 different types of cheeses and the 6 different moisture grades...cooked a really yummy dinner with j and was in bed nice and early :) nice sunday
