20-mile training run completed

Saturday was a great day for a long run. It was overcast most of the day and in the upper 50s. I ran 20.27 miles at a pace of about 10:40 per mile. The last two miles were a little rough primarily because my back was hurting. You'd think it would be the legs...LOL. In addition to the 20 miles Saturday, I had another 7 during the week, so the weekly total was 27 miles. My body feels pretty good today, so recovery from the long run is progressing well. 

This coming Sunday 3/11, there is a St. Patrick's day 5K run in Baltimore which is always a lot of fun. I have several friends that will be running, so I am definitely looking forward to it.

Only a little more than a month until the Boston marathon. Can't wait!
