Week Fourteen: Sunday (The Long Run)

The Professor and I hit the lake for a couple of ten-mile laps. Scheduling conflicts pushed it to a Sunday run, instead of the usual Saturday.  Weather was chilly at the start, and the wind coming of the lake was brutal at times.  We had a solid run--pace was good and we finished strong.  This was the apex, in terms of long runs.  The next time I feel like this is mile 20 of the marathon.  Now begins a tapering process that will supposedly get this author to the starting (and finish) line ready, rested and injury-free.  Three-weeks out.
