Ten Miles!

I did ten miles on Saturday. Woohoo! Four at home with "Leslie" and another six plus at the Lake with my friend, Ang. I have to tell you, I could feel it the last couple of miles! I remember thinking as I got into my car..."and this is only half a day's walk in the three day!" Ugh, I remember THAT pain. It had been a while since I'd done more than six. I don't think I've walked more than six since the three day, actually. I'm still not too worried about long distances. There's plenty of time for that. But I won't walk more than a half marathon until at least mid-summer. I'm trying to focus on building speed in the lower distances. I'll start by going from walking four to six miles regularly to ten. I'll take it nice and slow, then move up to 13.1 (what can I say, I impress myself when I say, I just walked a half marathon!). And at some point, maybe I'll even give jogging a try. But it felt good to get out there and do some serious walking. Anyone else want to join me at the lake next time?
