Easy Peasy, Lemon Squeezy.

Distance: 4.12miles! (this is my new "easy run"!)
Duration: 46:38
Avg Pace: 11:19 min/mile (faster than last week's long run!)
Route: MapMyRun

Today's run was out in the beautiful weather. It was sunny and warm. I may have been overdressed (a tank top would have been more than enough!) but I still loved it. I really like my new route. I'm sure I'll be bored of it by next week...

I think what I'm most excited about today is that today is supposed to be an easy run. and I did 4 miles, easy. In February 2.5 miles was an easy run (but was still hard). That was only 2 months ago. I think it's really cool that I have increased my mileage, but I'm worried about Bay to Breakers. It's only 35 days away. That's 4 weeks! I can't take another 2 months to get up to a 12K. I only have 1 month to increase to 7.5 miles!

But if I keep increasing mileage - and try for another mile on my long runs each week, I'll be fine. Even if I can "only" run 6 miles - adrenaline and my friends will carry me over the last mile and half, right?
