16 miles . . . again!

16 miles was so much better today!

It was an overcast morning when Bella and I set out today. I was halfway hoping we'd get rained on, just so I could say that I "ran in the rain" but by the end, the sun came out, and it was a gorgeous day.

I'll spare you a detailed account of the run today since that seems to be all I blog about lately. I'll just say that mentally, I was much more prepared for the distance. I kept a really steady pace and honestly felt great for all but the last mile. Today's last mile was still a huge improvement from miles 12-16 last week, but the last mile today, I had a hard time keeping a steady pace. My legs were dead, and I was starving!

Today's long run completes Week 10 of my marathon training. 6 weeks until the marathon and 3 long runs to go! It's hard to believe!
