Workout: Easy Run

Distance: 3.1 miles

Today I found myself in Hoboken doing my run again, as my bathroom is currently being remodeled so I have no where to shower.  Run was good.  A thunderstorm had just passed by, so the air was clear and crisp and the NYC skyline was completely clear.  I ran the same course I did last week, and again with my girlfriend.  It’s good getting to run with her, because it keeps me at an easy pace…plus, each time we run together I see her getting better and better.  I look forward to her doing well at Virginia Beach.  She keeps this up she should be able to reach her PR.

I’m also looking forward to hitting a PR, because once I do I’m going to take a step back from running for speed and switch over to running for distance.  My friends and family think I’m crazy, but I want to run a 100 mile ultra marathon.  2 years ago I read about the Western States 100 in Runner’s World magazine, and I fell in love.  100 miles of trail running…what could be better than that?  I check the 2007 finisher times…the winner finished in like 16 hours, the last person came in around 27 hours.  I can’t wait!!

Well, I’m exhausted so I gotta get outta here.  Hope your running and lives are going well!  Thanks for reading!

Run on friends!
