Long Run # 4. I am happy to report that the troubles I had with tried legs last week are gone. Step back week worked and I felt good for the 9 miles. It wasn't easy - but good. I was cruising along at a speedy clip for miles 4 through 6. I am sure the dropping blood sugar (see below) contributed to the good feelings.
But by mile 7 my quads were starting to feel the effort. I was plugging along - not much paying attention to what was going on around me. As I approached the Longfellow - Homeward Bound started to play. I looked up at one of the best views in Boston and realized that I didn't have far to go and was actually making the turn home.
Another high point of the run - I saw Lucky again and he had a buddy.
