Today I ran 14.5 miles.
We did 10.5 with the club and then a group of us who are doing Las Vegas Marathon in Dec. went out for 4 more.
It was an awesome run. It never fails to amaze me how great I feel on these runs and how much I enjoy them. Isn't it so odd that I enjoy these long runs better than my short ones during the week? I mean, compare 4 or 5 miles during the week to 10-22 miles on the weekend and the long miles are better. I just adore the people in our club. I'm not even a very social person but the people in our pace group are awesome this year.
I have to say that I don't really enjoy pace leading though. I feel like I am constantly checking the watch, checking the GPS, telling people to slow down or speed up. I like to just go out the door and run without having to think about it. The people in my group are great though. I think they enjoy running in a pack as well so when I ask them to slow down a bit, they haven't really put up an arguement.
My back does hurt a bit now though. It may be smypathy pains for Joe, the other pace leader of our group who pulled a back muscle yesterday? :)
