Yesterday I ran 7.52 miles. That is the longest run I've had since running the Nike Half Marathon last year. It felt good to get out there. I blew off running every day last week because I was tired of running in the cold. Yesterday it was a balmy 39 degrees when I went out. It was so liberating. I've had a lot on my mind lately with our upcoming move and I have been feeling a little stressed. Being out on the road with my iPod and my favorite songs really helped me get a little perspective on things. I really felt like I could run forever yesterday. I ran from my house through Clinton Hill and Fort Greene to the Brooklyn Bridge, over the bridge and back home. My coaches voices were in my head as I dug in with my elbows and took smaller steps while quickening my pace as I took on the incline of the Brooklyn Bridge. I've been beaten by the bridge in the past but not yesterday. I ran the damn thing. I wasn't even that winded after. Next time I'll run it harder.
