Finally - feeling good!

The run tonight felt amazing!
I made sure to "touch the Swans" on the way back through, but I was shooting for a little bit more tonight.  When you feel it, you've gotta go for it!
No complaints about tonight's run.  The weather was delightfully cool (mid-upper 50's), no wind, and only clouds out in the distant west.  I started as the sun was finishing its setting, and finished solidly in the dark.  In only a few months, I would be running in daylight still (and heat!).  My leg was tight up through the turnaround point, but I gave it a good stretch and had no problems.  I was a little concerned about my ankle giving me grief from Saturday's long run, but I had zero issues.  Closing in on 1000 calories/hour!

Erin also snuck in an equally long run (in the complete opposite direction) right before I got mine in, so that's some pretty solid mileage for the team tonight.  I'm feeling pretty good about my mileage this month.  Let's see how far I get though.  With being busy Thursday night, I'm thinking I'll be wise to get in a decent run (maybe a little faster paced) this Wednesday, and maybe a quick one on Friday.  Saturday, we're shooting for 15 miles, me thinks.

Well, that's about it.  Colbert is waiting for me.
