Well done, Ambular! I completed my 10-miler right before it started to get really hot, but I still had some moments when I was directly in the sun that it was a struggle to keep on running. I can already see the benefit of having this blog and doing this training together, because knowing I would have to report back to you was the motivation I needed to keep going. I'm definitely going to have to recruit a running buddy or two as the weeks go on and the runs get longer.
Speaking of running buddies, I was talking to MB about having you all come up to visit, and we thought it would be great if we could coordinate it around one of our big mileage weekends, i.e. the 20-miler. And then we could celebrate our achievement together that night. That is 10 weeks away on October 8, and also happens to be the weekend of the Chicago Marathon, which might help get us pumped up for our race. Amber and Megs, do you work that weekend? Shay Shay, flight to Chi town??
Side note, I got to perform a little Enrique last night in front of my work buddies. Wish you could have been there!
I do not work the weekend of October 8, but I might be going to Aaron's soccer game that day. And of coarse, wouldn't you know, it's on the opposite end of Illinois in Edwardsville. I'll keep you updated.
