I'm running the Boston Marathon and there's no better way to resolve to do so but with a New Year's Day morning run. And no better motivation than to do so in Florida. Except it was a bit hot and humid here and I didn't get out until 8am. I'm not used to the heat now and people underestimate how much the sun will take out of you.
Regardless, I had a good 5 mile run, at what I hope will eventually be my marathon pace (just under 9min/mi). There aren't many easy to get to places here where you run on something softer than concrete, which is really hard and tough on the knees. I took care to ice the knees afterwards and took a couple ibuprofen.
Planning my first long run on Tuesday the 2nd.
