Well, I got in a couple of 3 mile runs this weekend around the neighborhood (aka Wantagh). It felt great to be out and about in the nice weather, especially after a few days of horrendous heat!
I seem to get these ideas in my head that I need to complete my runs in a certain amount of time. When that happens I look at my watch every 5 seconds, convinced that at least 2 minutes have gone by. Turns out, this does not make for a fun run. Over the weekend I realized that if I just go out for the sake of running, with no other agenda at play (e.g. finishing in a certain amount of time) it's much more enjoyable. And to sweeten the deal, I end up running faster than I otherwise would. Lesson learned!
