Left the house a bit later than I had intended; however, it made absolutely no difference in the scheme of things. Beautiful morning with the temperature at 61 degrees, a slight breeze and low humidity: optimum conditions to undertake a 16-miler. Stashed the carbs at mile-8, refueled and headed around for the second act. Overall, I have no complaints. It was a solid run. I felt strong from beginning to end--actually ran a bit faster than I intended, though. The endorphins kicked in around mile 12 and I really started to have a good time. Giddier than usual. More importantly, my legs feel good now--10 hours after the fact.
