Live Smart. Live Healthy. Live Happy.
Well, the hardest part is over. 8 straight weeks of 2 mile increases on the long runs peaked this past Sunday with a 20 miler (that I’m happy to say went WAY better than the 14 mile disaster from my 8 week post). I’ve now completed runs of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, […]
