With the assistance of ‘Just draw it’ application I mapped out this Saturdays run with my turn around being Oak Street Beach, but ended up going beyond turning around at North Avenue Beach which was 1 mile over. In the future I would like to continue to map out my routes as I did for this run because it just adds that extra motivation to accomplish the distance I set out to do which was 15 miles in this case.
The fun part about this run was merging in with the ‘Run Mag Mile‘ runners near Millennium Park, mingling in and running with them until they veered off on the Lakefront Path. Many of the runners were slower than I, but it felt great to dumb my pace down a little, especially while on a long run.
I felt great during this run despite not getting in any runs throughout the week due to putting sleep ahead of training. This week I also gave it thought that I would like to look for a treadmill or elliptical in order to get the workouts in in-between overnight work schedule.
For next weekends run, if I do not run the half marathon I would like to go 18 miles being that I ran 16 miles this weekend.
I am excited for the Illinois Fighting Illini vs Conneticut Huskies game this weekend because I actually get to watch it entirely.

You seem to have it all well planned out. Good luck and stay safe
Running a marathon you have to have a plan in preparation or you’ll fall flat on your face during the run. Its 26.2 miles of running for crying out loud.
Good work Thomas , keep it up
Thanks Witty. Once I get my key runs in I plan to have fun with my training. I’ll have a good portion done before September ends
We are all rooting for ya pal!!!
I wish I had tools like that when I was running. oh well
Makes it pretty darn fun. And to think in the future there will be more. I just found a pair of sunglasses that I can record and snap pictures with. I’ll be able to share with you all how I see things when I’am running or cycling.
yes Orbi has one that has been around for awhile. They work very well.
