The Great Wall Of Bradenton

Today I ran my 10 miler at a easy pace, and compared to the last time (or first time) it was not really that hard in the end. I felt the usual end of long run pains but nothing out of the ordinary.

In order to make the route I run 3 extras mile (its normaly 7) I decided to run "the sound wall" (I snapped a picture with my cell phone) next to the highway. It was somewhat weird as it radiated a lot of heat and reeked havoc on my heart rate. Very weird running next to it as I felt as I was on the wrong side (the rich people live on the other side).

I like how you were able to really pick it up at the end there. I know how hard it is, with your legs burning to squeek out that extra bit of power and speed.

congradulations on the double digiter!
