And it swelled to 12

12 MILES!
2 Hours 28 Minutes 12:19 Minute Mile

I wish I could say it was easy, but it wasn't. The first two miles my legs were so tight I thought they would snap. Some how I kept going, although I was trying to talk myself out of it.

After the first two miles I found a groove and started to play the mind games;

• "Can't stop running until we get to the end of the cadence"
• "Power Song -MOVE "
• "What am I going to eat after this"
• "What am I going to wear to Lynn's concert tonight"

You get the picture.
The worst part was while I was running at Lindbergh there were 5 basketball games going on the entire time I was running down in the field house and the concession stand was selling mini-donuts, popcorn and pizza. The smell was making me nauseous.

I am looking forward to the race this weekend finally getting here. It will be fun to share it with my running buddies and Dan will be at the finish line.
