16 Miles Again

Today was a 16 mile long run.  We started late morning because of rain in the early hours.  This was a good run for the following reasons:

  1. My hamstring and glut felt better than it has since the Senior Olympics when I thought it was a good idea to sprint a full speed without training for sprints.
  2. We ran a new route which was fun.  Kathy thinks of everything including money for water and Gaterade at the gas station.
  3. The weather was cool and overcast and even though there was rain in the forecast we stayed dry (except for excessive amounts of sweat).
We had two different people stop and ask us directions.  We must have had mapquest stamped on our foreheads.  When someone asked us directions we had to stop and think about where we were at the moment to give directions.

As usual running with Kathy makes the long run fly by.
