Total Miles This Week = 40.5

Last night Matt & I headed down to the US Capitol to listen to the US Army Band. It was a nice relaxing night with a picnic dinner. At one point the band was playing a Sousa march and there was a little boy who was marching in the grass and then his dad joined him. So much fun to watch.

This morning the alarm went off at 6:40am, got up and ate some oatmeal, and got ready for my run. (While Matt also got ready to head to DC to do his run as well). I was out running by 7:27am in the perfect weather, it was 70's and overcast.

Today's Run
18 miles
3 hours 33 mins
11:45 min/mile
160 avg HR
2640 calories burned

I ran the first 6 miles straight and it felt great. I averaged running 1.5 miles and walking 0.15 miles alternating for the rest of the run. I did not start to really feel any pain until 15.5 miles. I made it back to our neighborhood and thought, "why is our house so far away?"
