This week was a step back week, so I had "only" a 12 mile run. Unfortunately, it was one of those runs that I just wasn't feeling it and it was slow and long. One of the ways I get through my long runs is listening to music. I have a running playlist called, wait for it, Running 1.
This play list ran out last week right as I was finishing my 16 miles. So I need to add some more - probably about 2 hours more of music to be on the safe side. Let me know your suggestions.
