Well, who knows? Yesterday's run went well, 38:52 for the same 5.6 mile loop, but apparently I gained weight, 2.5 lbs. My guess is that (1) I was dehydrated yesterday morning when I weighed and (2) I had not eaten breakfast. Neverthelss, this leads me to believe that yesterday was the abnormal reading and that the 181 on day one may have been accurate. Who knows. I can see now why they say weighing once a week is a better strategy, but then what would I bore you with?
Today's run may be the 7.2 miler, if I am motivated to run over the bridge when I get to the lincoln memorial. The extra 2 miles or so will not add much to my overall fitness, but there is something about running for 52 minutes versus 40 minutes. Seems much more like running for a purpose and less like simple maintenance exercise. We'll see.
