My Running Mileage Increasing
Today, on only the 17th day of August, I have already surpassed my July's cumulative running mileage total, hitting the 74-mile mark. This puts me on pace for 135 miles in August, a sizable increase from last month. Yet I looked back on my totals for 2013 and I also exceeded 130 miles for August then. Anyway, at this rate I should be in good shape to tackle some of the upcoming fall races...and perhaps even include one or two half-marathons. I have noticed a general increase of endurance and comfort in my runs, and so far seem to be avoiding any significant foot or leg pains. But I'm going to just continue with what I've been doing and, if the opportunity arises, I just might enter one of the upcoming races, either here in Gainesville, Jacksonville, or a nearby locale...
