Saturday, 01.21.12

Today I accidentally ran 5.5 miles.

I was planning on taking a rest day but the runner in me overruled.  After a night of much needed rain, the morning greeted me with fresh air, clearing skies, and bright sun rays breaking through white, fluffy rain clouds.  Perfect running weather!

I set out to run 4 miles, but forgot to start my Nike GPS ap until I was already a mile into it.  I just kept listening to the voice in my ear telling me how far I had gone and by the time I realized that the voice was a mile behind, I was almost to 5 miles.   And by the time I was at 5 miles, I was only half a mile away from home.

It was a great therapeutic, mind clearing run so I didn't mind the extra distance!
