Long run – 6.35 miles
You know when everything just kind of feels right? Well today’s run was one of those days!
I didn’t think it would be as I had a strange feeling in my foot all morning, which I couldn’t work out as being a muscle pain or something wrong wit a bone. So, the first 10 minutes were going to tell me if it would be a long run or not, and luckily, it felt just just fine, so I headed off for my normal 10K-ish route.
It was also perfect conditions this afternoon. Slightly warm, but overcast with a nice breeze. I’d bought a new Nike Dry-Fit running vest this morning, and to be honest I can’t believe I’ve waited this long to get a vest (I’ve always gone for standard t-shirts before). It was so much more comfortable that a normal t-shirt. It ma sound funny, but even feeling the breeze against my shoulders seemed to make me run stronger!
Although I was pretty tired when I got back home I felt like I could have kept going for at least a couple more. That’s always a great feeling to have… once I’ve done my 10K race in two weeks time I’l probaby start to up the miles.
What to do next...

Great stuff. I had a similar experience yesterday. I’ve got 3 weeks to my 10K run.
