Long Run

Today I celebrated my first 10 mile run. I had this moment where I feel almost like I could tell someone that I have a running training plan and not have them sneer at me when I say it. Along with reaching the ten mile goal I have this renewed sense of confidence that I can and will make the half marathon point. I ran the most beautiful path along a river. It was very picturesque and I was so swept away by how peaceful and relaxing the whole thing was. If my digital camera was working, I would have taken pictures. I think that after my initial angst about the cross training program it is working. The hill walking especially helped today. I felt that the hills themselves were not as bad as last week, when I did the 9 miler. Overall two thumbs up to the new training program. Now if I could just crush this weight plateau I would be happy.
