50 Mile Week Done!

...And let me just say that a cold and windy day is not a good day for a 15 miler.

My feet were brutalized after that run, but I managed to maintain marathon pace throughout the entire run.

I will say that it pays to practice a pattern in which necessary actions are completed while running long distances.  I forgot to zip the pocket of my running belt and didn't realize that my keys had bounced out near my home...

It wasn't until I was walking home as part of my warm down that I spotted the keys and thought, "wow, those look alot like mine!"

Yes, I was very very lucky with that one.

But what truly made me feel better were the 3 'cooked in bacon fat' burgers, 4 slices of bacon, 3 Rice Krispie Treats, 5 snickerdoodle cookies and a handful of Doritos that I inhaled after the run.

There is something quite beautiful about burning 1700 calories in a single workout.
