80 miles! I can’t remember the last time I’ve done that much in a month, which is kind of sad.

I was originally going to title this post something like, “Too much exercise.” Monday I ran in the morning and swam in the evening. Tuesday was running. Wednesday was rowing machine followed by spinning class. And then more running this morning. So when I was out there I was feeling sluggish and slow and I was envisioning a 39 minute finish time for my 4-miler. Well, as it turned out, 32:46. So I guess I wasn’t moving that sluggishly after all, oops. All in all, very pleased. Nice jump in speed for me. Let’s see if I can maintain this into next week or not.

Also, mental note to myself: time to get new shoes soon. At just about the 300-mile mark. (Already.)
