COMMENTS

This marks some turning point, but I must be careful.  The Thursday previous I tried to have a short and fast run, but my rate did not even break nine minute miles.  On the Saturday I tried to have a long and slow day, but I could not run farther than the five miles I already cranked out several times the week before.  Nevertheless, I was able to run a solid five every day, without trouble.
