Today's the big day. I'm not a huge football fan, but the SuperBowl is more of an event than a game and I'm going to enjoy watching the spectacle. I've already had a beer and I have chips and salsa and some other treats for game watching. And of course, there are the commercials to check out. I also enjoy the Puppy Bowl. Aw, come on, how cute is that?
I managed to get in 12.25 miles last week. A little short of what was planned, but not too bad. I blew off Monday's 2-mile recovery run and didn't have the Garmin for the long run on Saturday, which was supposed to be 7 miles. So I just did the 6.25 mile out and back in the park. I actually did the 4 mile tempo run on Wednesday - 4 miles at approximately 9:00min pace. It felt hard, which is so weird, since I do sub-9s in races and don't even feel it. The miles always seem harder when I run by myself.

The miles ARE harder when run by oneself.
(Maybe not-so-scientific, but FACT, none-the-less).
