5.53 miles ~~ weekend run

I like running on the weekends, because I can usually fit a longer run in than I can during the week.  That is, if I don't plan too many activities or jobs to do.

It was a beautiful day today with the sun shining.  I've missed the sun and the warmth.  Sometimes it seems like spring will never really get here...but I guess spring is the ups and downs in weather.  I ran 5.53 miles near home and tried to push myself a little more than usual.  I kept an 11:46 per mile pace, so it was better than the last time I ran.  I've been wearing my Vibrams most days I run and having very little pains or aches.  I've also been trying to stretch a lot after I run, and that seems to really help.  My breathing has been great, if I take my inhaler before hand as I should.  

I haven't been in a race since the Disney Half Marathon, and I am starting to miss that.  I do like the excitement and energy that races and events have.  Luckily, we have one planned in a week or so.  I just hope the weather is nice!
