49 Days - 7 Full Weeks

Alright, so I'm done with eating at my desk, and not quite ready to get back to work, so I'm just posting here for the hell of it.

I realized that I've hit 7 weeks now since my last day not run...49 days of running. I've never run this many days in a row, and quite honestly, I get the feeling my body will be ready for a day off in the coming weeks, but it's not there yet. I was thinking that this morning as I got myself into my running shorts, laced up the shoes, and stepped out my door to my apartment, that it might be a good day to take a day off. But about 2 miles into the run, I really feel like my body and legs were benefitting from the run. I don't know how... I'm in uncharted territory already, and I'm finding how much my tired body seems to be thriving on the work. I'm loving it.

So, just for fun, here have been my mileages for each of the last 49 days... I know ridiculous, but any of my readers are just going to pay the price for my boredom. :P

Well, there it all is! 7 weeks of training. I think I thought I did 2-a-days more often. In these 49 days, I ran 17 of those days twice, giving me a total of 66 total runs in those 49 days. I don't feel like adding up the mileage, so I'll let someone else do that. More to come, as there is a long way to go. Back to work! :-)
