Maintenance loop 3.4 miles (32:35). Pretty sore from yesterday, and the crapradoodle was doing her business, but maybe there's something about a sunny winter afternoon that helps keep the pace up a bit. Not a fast run, by any means, but pleasant.
I found myself thinking ahead a great deal to Wednesday's run. Tomorrow's another maintenance, probably on the treadmill at the rec center, but Wednesday will be a long one. I think I'd like to go 17 miles, and I'm trying to figure if I should run 10 in the morning and 7 in the evening or run the whole distance at once.
Either way, I'm excited about it, which I think is good, as it keep my motivation up.
I've also been thinking about my weight. Now that I'm consistently running 30+ miles each week, I wonder if it's healthy to be cruising along at 200 pounds. I don't like to diet, it's true, but I wonder if it's time to cut back on some of my excesses -- I tend to overeat, I sometimes eat because I'm bored, I snack before bed -- those things seem so simple to get up, but like Quentin Compson tells us, it's the idle habits we acquire which we learn to regret the most.
