Thoughts: 6 mile runs have become as difficult as 3 mile runs were a month or two ago. At one point they were my long runs, now they are half the distance of my long runs. That gives me hope that the longer runs will become easier as well. Hopefully in another month 12 mile runs will be no sweat.

Day 127
Start: 4:53am
Weather: Cold and Clear
Time/Distance/Pace: 30:19 - 3.04 miles - 9:59
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/72630214
Thoughts: A decent run. My muscles were still worn out from the 12 mile run on Saturday, but they were not sore at all. RunKeeper freaked out partway through the run and plotted swimming to Falmouth and running a mile or two there. So, I had to just use my time and plot my run by hand.

Day 125
Start: 7:03am
Weather: Cold, Icy, Breezy and Clear
Time/Distance/Pace: 2:13:02 - 12 miles - 11:05
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/72319104
Thoughts: Not the best weather for a long run, at least the temperature wasn't too low. I felt real good for 6 or 7 miles and slowly lost my pace. My goal is to be able to do 10 miles at a 10:30 pace when I do my 20 mile training run, and right now that isn't doable. By the start of mile 11 I was at a crawl. I would have been able to complete a half marathon at this point, but I know I would not be able complete a full one. It's hard to believe that the long distances will get easier so completing a marathon seems possible. I just have to believe that it will happen.

Day 123
Start: 5:00am
Weather: Cold and Clear
Time/Distance/Pace: 29:49 - 3 miles - 9:56
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/72009476
Thoughts: A quick and easy run. I might have said this before, but I barely notice these 3 mile runs now. That's pretty exciting because I can remember back to when I started to run again (last July?) and 3 miles was my long run and was very tiring.

Start: 4:34am
Weather: Cold and Clear
Time/Distance/Pace: 1:03:28 - 6 miles - 10:35
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/71703905
Thoughts: My first long run during the week (I guess I consider 6 miles to be long). I get up at 4am every day but I usually take the morning pretty slowly. This morning I had to start my run by 4:30 or I wouldn't have enough time to shower before having to leave for work. So, that was a challenge in itself. The run went well, though I started to feel pretty sluggish during the last mile. My knees are still holding up, though I've been hampered with a tight left hamstring for months now.
