8mi long run / 25mi for the week

This morning we ran 8mi along the Los Alamitos Creek Trail in Almaden Valley - our longest 'long run' of the season so far. And that makes 25mi for the week having run shorter distances last Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

This morning I ran too fast to begin with - a common mistake - which made the run a little harder than it needed to be. However this week I learned that the wife of a friend who had been battling breast cancer for several years passed away in April. She was four years younger than me. There is nothing fair about cancer. I finished strong and steady this morning in honor of her.
