A Beautiful Summer Weekend
We have had some beautiful weather this weekend clear blue sky, a gentle breeze and around 90F. On Saturday I went for an easy 14K/8.7M run around my normal training loop. Average pace 5:34/K (8:58/M). I wished that I could have run farther, the run felt so effortless.
Today (Sunday) I went for a walk, not a stroll in the park, rather a power walk. I went about 9K, with an average pace of 8:00/K (12:52/M) – fast enough to work up a good sweat in the 89F weather!
Tomorrow night I want to run the same 9K route and again on Wednesday. I am resting Thursday and Friday for my 80K race on Saturday evening. I'm really getting excited about the race, a little nervous, but not the scary kind. If I stay cool and relaxed I think I'll do fine.
Have a great Sunday!

Wish you luck for the 80km!!
I will find out latter how it went.
I will be traveling to Spain and will visit London also. Thanks to the internet I already checked some places to run, thanks for offering for help :)

Enjoy the good weather while it lasts. Our weekend turned sour, and if I'm not mistaken, those clouds are headed your way.
