I got in a 3.2 mile run yesterday evening before the cold front came back today. First 2 miles I was kind of tight in my calves and fought to keep a 9:39min/mile pace. By mile 2.25 I was really loosening up and pushed out an 8:29 final mile and then turned it up another notch and ran the last 2 tenths of a mile back to the house at a 7:19/min mile pace. Deep breaths Deep breaths.......... good mid-week 5k.
I read a very touching article from the dailymile blog. I try to explain to my family and my FB friends just how much this site means. The camaraderie, the friendships, motivation, encouragement, sharing, laughs, tears, and everything in between. The meetups at races or on long runs and no matter how much I try, there are those that simply don't get it.
If you get a chance to visit the site and read the article, maybe, just maybe, you will get a glimpse into the "human side" of dailymile.com.
