After all of those July and August runs in the 90s with crazy humidity, today was PERFECT!! About 70 degrees with very low humidity. Great run. 16 miles in 2:19:19 or 8:42/mile. Should be ready for my first 20 miler next Sunday. I'm going to run 6 miles on Tuesday, 6 miles on Thursday, 4 on Saturday and then 20 on Sunday. That's 36 miles or over 5700 calories burned!!
I wore my beatingryanreynolds.com t-shirt and had a couple runners stop and tell me how much they love the website. Great motivation.
My photo shop skills are very rudimentary but I am getting pumped for this race!!
Really about 4 to 5 weeks of real training before the taper. Marathon fast approaching!
Tim, I was one of those runners. Planning on making a donation after today's run. So psyched to see you! I had seen someone like you one day, then later in the day came across an article about your endeavor, which I forwarded to others. So much fun! -Ben http://www.benhauck.com
