Marathon Training Week 5

      So this week was a twelve mile run. We are in Hattiesburg, MS for labor day weekend and the start to Southern Miss Football. We faced the storm (literally) and ran through a tropical storm early this morning. A change of scenery was a relief being that we have run the same route for months now. The run itself was long, but it was not nearly as hot as it has been in South Mississippi in August, and the light rain was quite refreshing. However, the last mile the rain got harder, our legs throbbed more, and our feet were aching, but thankfully the mind is stronger than the body, and we pushed through. It's times like this that we stay focused on our reason for running. All in all a good run, and now it's time to watch the Eagles stomp the La Tech Bulldogs! SMTTT!

Thankful for mother nature... and our Golden Eagles!
