It has been 16 days since my first Marathon. This may sound a tad crazy, but I really miss the weekend long-runs. I still try to get out and do 7-10 miles on a Saturday, but I really enjoyed the time we would spend doing 4-6 hours of “exploring”.
Of course, I should probably give that time to my kids (and my house), but I’m already starting to think ahead to the next thing I can train for.
Yes, non-runners think you’re crazy. I don’t think it’s crazy at all. The solitary time during a run centers me on God. that’s why I miss long runs.
