i’m training for the See Jane Run half marathon in Alameda in early June, so my long runs have been creeping up in length. this weekend was a 10-miler that, despite the fact that i ran most of it uphill (home to the end of the fire trail at Strawberry Canyon, then back to the start of the trail), felt pretty good and left pretty much no risidual soreness the next day. it always feels good to ‘touch’ a distance that i haven’t reached in a while. just how long a while, however, was a bit horrifying when i went back through my training logs and discovered that the last time i’d broken into double digits for a run length was AT the big sur marathon in april of 2010. it’s been two years since i ran a single 10 miler?? yikes.
