Last weekend, Central Park and I met again. I ran what my friends call the "Baby Loop". Every 2 miles or so, I ran passed the finish line area for the marathon. Each time, I was reminded of how little hills add up. Exhausting doesn't cover it. Lucky for me, it works the other way too. All the training adds up. Every mile you put in ... every day you run, it gets easier. The program works. The hard part is sticking to it. Can someone please remind me of this tomorrow when I have to wake up before dawn on a Saturday?
We're running 7 miles in the group on Tuesdays and Thursdays now. Tomorrow is our first official loop around the lake. Many, many loops to go before November. The day will come when 10 miles will seem like a breeze. Did I actually write that?
