Added a couple extra miles onto the normal long run this week.  Turned out to be a chilly but beautiful morning with clear skies and slightly breezy.  The rain and snow that was forcast never showed up.  Felt pretty good for most of the run today until the fatigue really started to set in around mile 12.  I really have a ton of work to do on my endurance this year.  I'm going to have to start doing 20 milers for fun in the coming weeks.  Hope everyone has a great presidents day weekend.

I'm having a great weekend, but I don't get Monday off. Does anyone that doesn't work for the government or a bank actually get that day off? Nice run, looks like you kept a pretty good pace.

20 miler just for fun? you are a crazy runner!

My husband gets it off but because the company he works for is based back east he gets a lot of weird days off.

Don't you love running in the cold now? Nice pace and mileage. My hubby has Mon off, not sure if he's just taking it off so we can go skiing. That's something we do every Mon holidays during the winter. Hope you have a great weekend too.
