April 7, 2013 (10 Weeks of Cherry Blossom Training)

Aside from getting me completely and utterly addicted to running, training for the Cherry Blossom 10 Mile proved to be a gorgeous endeavor.

I learned to look for pictures along each of our Sunday training long runs, which turned into a fun way to pass the time while running the mileage. (And thanks to Kelly for being so ridiculously patient with me when I whipped out my phone for a picture.)

So, here's what 127.2 miles looks like, a week at a time.

Week 1:

Week 2:


Week 3: (Capital Crescent trail)

Week 4: (Memorial Bridge run)
