16.

I ran 16 miles this morning and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Not sure how that happened!

I started the run at 6:30 with my friend (and running partner) Suzanne. She’s training for her half marathon (that is next weekend) and since my TNT group wasn’t meeting up until 7:30, we thought we could get 5 miles in before then. We totally did, with time to spare.

I then ran some mixed up route – part with TNT, part with Suzanne and Krista, part with just Krista, and then three miles on my own. It was weird, and fun in a really weird way.

My legs are pretty sore tonight. We walked around Mars Hill College’s campus this afternoon and then did a bit of car researching (some might call it shopping, but we’re not buying right now) so it’s been a long day.

Pictures to come from the MHC outing. Colors peaked probably last weekend up there – they’re peaking right now in Asheville, which is pretty spectacular to watch!
