The cold front continues. In fact, the cold front has been amplified and we are now talking about high temperatures in the 50s. During the day. Remember when temperatures didn't even get down to 50, even at night? Because I most certainly do.
This week -- the week leading up to the marathon -- is the most super-easy week ever. As it should be. Two three-mile runs and one (wait for it) 2-miler the day before the race. That one is mostly to ensure that your body hasn't completely forgotten what running is.
I know why the 5 miles felt long the other day, or at least I can theorize that it was related to tapering. Today's three miles, on the other hand, was just fine. Nice, brisk temperature. Did a loop through Stephanie and David's neighborhood. I feel like I'm hitting up all of the places that I've been along this training journey.
It's funny to me that when I started, 3 miles felt like utter hell during the summer. Now, not only is it easy to run, but the weather is almost diametrically opposite.
