10 miles - Easy, 3 miles - Exhausted

Sunday was a recovery run. 10 miles. Weather was great and I felt refreshed. I started again going across to the West Side, down the river and across Central Park West. I then hit the marathon route, up First Avenue. It is long and straight and flat. So the key is not to look to the horizon, it goes on forever. Then, it is actually a really nice run - and will be better with thousands cheering! Then went across 110th St and back down 5th Ave to 90th St for more marathon route practice. 1 hr 30, 9 min pace and pretty relaxed.

Then add in a late night Sunday (brother's wedding), a trip to Montreal for the day with a late return Tuesday and an extremely humid morning today. Throw in a sore throat for good measure, and even a 3 miler this morning was rough. I just can't take the humidity and was so tired. Still, chalk it up to being one of those days and move on to the next 7 miles tomorrow.....
