Ready, Steady, Go

Here is the amazing and magical thing about running: sometimes you just have a fun that just works.  Today I had one of these runs. It was a 6 mile, easy paced run.  For the last couple of runs it has been warm and humid so I was little bit trepidation about going out for this run wondering how drained I would feel. However keeping the steady pace, 8:39, I never felt like I was really working at this run. It was just one of those runs where the speed, cadence, posture, etc. all just worked. It was also one of those runs where the daunting task of training and actually running a marathon seemed like something that could be attained. Not to say I instantly knew I would meet my goal but I did feel like I could actually (maybe) do this if I was able to keep focused. It was one of those runs that I hope I have often  during this training as it was something that made everything seem easier.
