Uncertainty

I suppose I could write it off as being humid again yesterday. But my 16-miler that was indeed run in fairly high humidity was another test of character. I did it in an average mile time of about 8:11, and that is in the range I'm supposed to be, but it's how I feel at the conclusion of these long runs that has me concerned.

I keep thinking that perhaps some time off would do me good, but for fear of jinxing myself, I have a hard time remembering when I was in such a good running groove in terms of not missing days and getting the miles in.

I suppose in a few weeks I could look back and feel as though I was overreacting. I suppose, like most of the rest of my running life; only time will tell.
