I’ve covered a lot of miles this week. Monday 10, Wednesday 4, Friday 6 and today my longest run ever 16 miles. I’ve been waiting for that mythical runners high and I’m starting to think this is a joke created my runners. There were a few times when I started to feel delirious, but the only high was when I finished.
My friends Mark and Kelly Renshaw suggested I add some Army Cadence marches to my Ipod. Just as was starting my last mile one started playing.
Issued me a grenade
Now I’m a one man raid
Gonna get me a bayonet
Gonna kill without regret
See the commie dressed in red
He’s got my bullet in his head.
Sound Off.
Yes those marines have a way with words, but the tempo really did get me going and the last mile was my fastest of the run.
With the increased mileage the chance of injury increases. Today I tripped and fell pretty hard. I was walking at the time and didn’t see the break in the side walk in front of Lenox and went down hard. Fortunately I only lost a little skin, but I see that I need to pay attention.
Only 67 days to go.
