Recovery Run

I went for a 3 mile recovery run after work today. The first mile was brutal, legs didn't feel so good. The last mile was really good though, the legs seemed to get loose and I felt pretty good. I couldn't help but think about the difference in the mindset needed for different distances. I can get through a short run thinking of nothing else but the sports page. I need a lot more focus for the longer runs. Anyway I'm starting to really enjoy this. I lost a couple of more pounds so right now I feel like I'm in a good place physically and mentally..tnx for reading - Til next time dave
