11 Mile Triumpth!

I did 11 miles today and I also reached a milestone of over 100 Miles total.  The Nike plus gave me a sticker.  I am very proud of it.  Once they awarded it to me, they even suggested I use the link below to brag.  This guys are marketing geniuses!

There is a reason why marathons start in the morning…it is HARD to run when it gets hot.  I started about 7:30 this morning and finished about 9:30 and by that time, it was already 83 out.  I have done some shorter runs this week that I could barely finish and even had to walk some of the miles since it was so hot.  It is a real bummer.

 

My new BFF, Shannon from work, gave me some awesome apple cinnamon Carb Boom-they are like eating warm apple pie.  Those really helped.  Thanks Shannon!

 

Overall, I am hanging in there but it is getting hard as I get up to higher and higher mileage.  Even my short runs during the week are no less than 4 miles.  Ouch.
