Heck, 20 miles is a dream distance for me. After Christmas I need to get back on track for spring half marathons and track.

It sure does leave quickly! It's so indicative of the second law of thermodynamics - as soon as you stop working to grow/improve/develop, you sink backwards.Graciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05641028266038110278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963402677916553399.post-40837335696996377412014-12-20T16:08:45.965-06:002014-12-20T16:08:45.965-06:00It just goes to show that a little bit of time off...It just goes to show that a little bit of time off can actually be a good thing. Sure, you lose a bit of fitness but that's something that can be easily reversed with consistency and effort. The body and mind come back to running feeling refreshed.Charhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13819714901550763235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963402677916553399.post-68195422340245565492014-12-20T12:32:21.450-06:002014-12-20T12:32:21.450-06:00I like feeling as though I'm always ready for ...I like feeling as though I'm always ready for a fast long run, too, but I'm sure your body appreciated the break.
