Running Again

I didn't post anything yesterday because I didn't run yesterday. Another late night led to another night of sleeping in.

This morning I got seven miles in along the parkway. I really didn't feel too good at all about two miles in and seriously contemplated turning around and cutting the run short. But I persevered, and got better and even picked up the pace a bit the last two and a half miles.

Pace really seems like a mental thing with me. I think sometimes when I'm running early in the morning and am tired and not mentally into the run, I run slower than I could be. This morning I made a conscious decision to pick up the pace and felt fine.
