Amazing run....

6 miles on the schedule today out at Stony Creek Park.  It was in the 50's but some wind - a great day for a run.

Do you ever have that run?  You know, the one that you wish would never end?  The one you feel you could run forever?
Ok, maybe not this long.
The one where you feel strong the entire way through?  I had one of those today.  I felt great.  It felt like I could have done another 6 but I knew I shouldn't.  The funny thing is - I didn't even bring my water on my run today.  I know it's not that critical for six miles but I'm so used to carrying my water bottle that I thought I would miss it.  There were times I wish I had it but it really was no big deal.  I was just amazed by how I felt today.  It's life's little pleasures that keep me going.


Have you had the euphoric run?




Have a great day and....Keep Running!!!!

  1. Nice run, Jeff! I had one of those types of runs last Sunday, when I planned to run 5 or 6 miles at whatever pace felt comfortable (no specific pace in mind, and it wasn't a tempo run). Once I started running, I felt great and ended up running 9 miles at only about 10 seconds slower than my 10K PR pace. The best part is that it felt like I wasn't putting forth as much effort as I should have for that pace/distance combination. I also felt like I could've run for several more miles, and I hope I have that kind of run the next time I race a half marathon.
