Counting the 10K race yesterday and 13.8 miles on the trails at the park today, I got in 20 miles for the weekend. Given the heat and humidity, that will have to do.
Thanks for reading my blog and adding your comments. For many years, I had a mental 2-mile limit. I finally got beyond that and I keep setting new goals for myself. I write a column on running for our local newspaper. Your comment reminded me of a colun I wrote last April.
