10.2 miles to go!

It's been a while since my last update, but I'll try to keep this one short!  This weekend just gone, I made it up to 16 miles!  It took a while, but we got there in the end!  I even made it out for, and survived, a 30 minute recovery run the next day.  I was excited to be back in the park for our long run, mainly because I'm too lazy to commute to a run so early in the morning, but by the time we were on our third loop of the park, my excitement was quickly wearing off.  Running new places definitely helps the time pass quicker... luckily for me we're heading out to Hartsdale (wherever that may be) this weekend, where the distance will come down to give our bodies a chance to recover.

I took advantage of the long weekend to work on a few more paintings for the Brooklyn Indie Market- only 11 days and 2 blank canvases to go now!  Here are a few pics of my latest creations...

 
At tonight's practice we're having our second fitness test.  I'll be racing a 5K on the lower loop of the park to see whether my speed has improved over the last couple of months.  Update to follow!
