Kicking in June

What a morning! The summers are starting to kick in and so is the heat! Even getting out the door by 8am today it was steamy in the city. A great run today! My furthest in long long time (maybe since high school). After showing up at practice expecting a 6 mile run I was surprised when it was ACTUALLY an 8 miler. I'll just saw that mentally i freaked out a bit. How was that ever going to happen! But it did and i'm still alive, walking normally and the legs even feel good. Maybe this training thing is actually working already. What a way to start a gorgeous day-running around central park amongst some tree shadows and the sun peaking through with a ton of other people. We must have been a sight as our group took mandatory water breaks standing in line at the water fountains. To replace all those calories burned, a nice breakfast of, what else but eggs benedict. yum yum! Here's hoping i'm still walking around tomorrow!
