Long Run: 5.26 Miles
Week's Total: 13.85 Miles
Training total since official TNT signup: 16.95 Miles
This weeks long run went a lot better than last time we tried this route. We walked a lot less, we were able to talk a lot more and we were just overall in better spirits about the whole thing. We stretched this run out so we ran down to the entrance of the RV park just to make sure it was a full 5 miles. The entire there and back route came out to 5.26 miles. (See long run link for exact route)
Somehow, I feel much more accomplished for being able to say that I ran "a little more than 5 miles" instead of "almost 5 miles."
About the last 1/2 mile of the route, Bree stopped for a quick breather and I almost killed her for it. In my mind I was ready to plow through to the end, so as soon as I stopped, all of a sudden I could feel every little muscle in my legs. In fact, each of these little muscles was screaming at me for stopping and telling me that they weren't going to start running again. Fortunately, by the time Bree was ready to run again, I was able to bargain with them to run just the last little bit.

You told me it was only 5 miles. In a way, I'm glad because we ran farther. Yet, I also feel deceived.
I think the actual terminology I used was "about."
