Mini long run of 11.5

The Galloway program has you running long runs every other week and then shorter long runs on the off week equal to half the distance of the previous long run.  This weekend I was supposed to run 9 miles but ended running 11.5 just so I could make it all the way to Fort Macon before turning around.  I walked the last mile and a half.

It was a beautiful sunny day and other than my big toes, everything felt great.  My long runs are pretty boring without my ipod from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.  Normally I listen to the lectures from the program while running.  I am very alert and manage to retain a lot of the information from the lectures despite not taking notes on my runs.  My ipod froze on the lock position and it needed to get sent away for repair.  Supposedly, it is fixed and sitting on my front step in Fairfax, VA.  In the meantime, I am listening to the radio on my iphone which feels way less productive!
