As I have been for nearly every "big run" so far in training, I was feeling pretty nervous about heading out for a 16-mile run today. Especially since it has been 2 weeks since my last "big run". (Not part of training, more a part of life - couldn't get a big run in while on vacation.)
Well, I made it. I actually made it. I guess I didn't really think I wouldn't finish - but the nerves I deal with before heading out... make me second guess my sanity, my ability.
I finished it - and feel better than I did after my 14 mile run. This time though, I treated myself to a solo trip to my rec center pool and took a long, long soak it the hot tub. And now, as I sit at my kitchen table, my feet are soaking in my homedics, bubbly foot spa. I just might be able to walk again tomorrow!
As for now, time to partake in a guilty pleasure, ice cream and a movie. The Sound of Music is on tv tonight, I love that movie!
