2 weeks down and still on pace. I've been here before, so I'm not too excited. What I am excited about is the fact I ran the full 14.5 miles last week, including the 5.5 mile run on Sunday.
Two things were surprising to me. First, that I actually got to the gym on Sunday. I wasn't feeling too good and almost had myself talked out of it. I was pretty tired and the wife made a good dinner. Second was how easy the run was after I got past a certain point. I continued to battle the run for the first 2.0 miles and was in pretty bad shape. After that, I seemed to see the end in site and it was pretty smooth. I guess I got the perverbial "runners high". I wasn't even out of breath at the end. Just a little soreness in the calves.
Week 3 is only .5 miles farther than week 2, so it provides "a break". The only difference is Sunday's run will be 6.0 miles. I can't say I'm not happy for the off day today, but look forward to continuing on.
See you next week.

Keep on going Joe...I know you can do it!
We'll see. I still consider it a goal at this point. I think the reality may start to set in once my tight @ss writes the check to sign up for it (probably around week 9).
