Mother's Day Run

My brother's couldn't believe that I was going to run 19 miles today on Mother's Day.  Since I had to work yesterday, I told them I had to run today.  Mother's Day or not, I was going to run today and stick to my training schedule.  The weather was perfect.  I did some hill work, but it was mostly flat.  I averaged 8:05 pace per mile and felt good afterwards.  Eddie did buy me some new running shoes for Mother's Day and that helped a lot.  No blisters this time!  The weird thing about it is that it didn't feel like I was going that fast.  I guess that's a good thing unless there's something wrong with my app?  Regardless, it was a good run.  I'm starting to notice more veins pop up on my arms and legs and not sure if that is due to all the running I'm doing.  Eddie is keeping up with our schedule too and can't believe he is not hurting.  This is the  the farthest he has ever run! We both worry about the hills in San Francisco, but I try not to let it miss with my head to much :)  I had a great Mother's Day!
