When Deb picks the day we do our long slow distance, it is always the one day of the weekend that the weather is great. Today was perfect – the rain stopped, the sun was shining, the snow melted.

We did 3.5 laps at a park with about 4 miles per lap. We figured we walked about 13.4miles in 3 hours and 27 minutes. The last mile we walked slowly and used as our cool down. Though I felt great when we finished, and our stretches felt great, I had a very difficult time with the first two miles. In fact, the first mile was so difficult, I was tempted to quit. Thank goodness Deb was with me.

We’re only a couple weeks away from our longest Big Sur training walk of 18 miles. I’m looking forward to it!
