another step closer

I woke up nervous about running today. It is getting pretty close to my goal now. It is a lot like rehearsing for a musical for quite awhile and then having to perform. I always got very nervous before singing performances.

I've been trying to run early as I can. I finally got on the road a bit before 9am this morning. It was warm and sunny already. A beautiful day. Caleb, Finn and Atticus walked with me during my warm up walk through the Canterbury woods I ran down Anthony via IPFW. I passed a group of 3-5 year olds all wearing their yellow t-shirts on their way to visit the fire station. They looked a little excited. I can't wait for Finn to do those things.

I crossed over to Columbia. That's a nice little neighborhood with a park over there. Then I turned back around at that point and ran back on the other side of Anthony back through IPFW and home. I ran a total of 8 miles today. My calves are feeling the pain. Even after running at least 5 times a week since January my body is still having all the growing pains. I wonder if it ever stops? Otherwise I feel pretty good. Not super tired out or anything. I'm shooting for 11 miles tomorrow...we shall see how it goes ;)
