Today (Wednesday) was my first practice day after a couple of days off due to a nasty cold.
I woke up with my wife at 4:55 AM this morning. She has started working early morning shifts at AEO and I thought I could make her waking-up process a little easier by getting up with her. I drove her to work and when I came home I was too awake to go back to sleep; so I decided to get my run over with, and went outside.
It is still very warm here in Miami and it doesn’t cool down much over night, but the temperature at 6:00 AM is a lot more bearable then during the day. I saw the sky change colors from a dark purple blue to a faded peachy color. It was beautiful.
The 9.5km (6miles) went by really fast, and by the time I came home I was tired enough to take a little nap.

Friday:
6.5km (4miles) – The raccoon was still on the side of the road. Poor animal – is getting eaten by rats, ants and all sorts of parasites. Today I’m getting ready for my run tomorrow. It’s the longest I will have done to date: 22.5km (14miles)…

Easy 9.5km (6miles) today. I can crank these sub-8mile runs now. Just for your information I rarely run with music. The iPod is my last resort in case I really have a tough day putting my running shoes on.
PS: The raccoon was still on the side of the road.

Tuesday:
Another day of running – 13km (8miles). I have my set routes around the block now. One round is 4miles long and another one is 3miles long. I figured out that I can do pretty much any even distance longer than 3miles by doing a combination of the mentioned two routes.
(3m,4m,5m,6m,7m,8m,9m,10m,11m,12m,13m,14m,15m, etc…)
I love the therapeutic trance that I get into while I run.
PS: I saw a stinky, dead raccoon on the side of the road. Yuk.
