training day number thirty-nine

this morning's run started at 5:30 am with a dense fog. it was beautiful and so special to be out with no traffic on the streets. for the first time on a morning run, i met another running prior to getting on the east duke trail. i have seen this runner before and she was shocked as was i to see another runner on main street so early in the morning. on the trail, there were more runners than i have ever seen but all were starting out as i was headed back from my turn around point. i used this as a time to imagine i was way out front in a race. :)

this run started with a dull pain in my right leg but as things warmed up, it mellowed out and i was able to run faster and without pain. so at this point, i am well on my way to having a 20+ mile week for the first time. fingers crossed
