Run journal - 2011/02/22

Mind over body. D. keeps telling me that a huge part of long distance running is having the mental toughness to tell the body to "shut up" when it starts complaining. On my 14 miler I won that battle on several occasions. This morning I ran only 1.1 miles out of a planned 4 miler, but feel that my mental toughness has never been more evident as I successfully performed the difficult clench-shuffle all the way home. Note to self...greasy roast beef and broccoli is not a good meal to have the night before a run.

Distance: 1.1 Miles
Average Pace: 13'42"/mi
Weather: Drizzly and cold.

Curse you D.
