its a great feeling isn't ? Just wondering if you really should run tomorrow as there are only 3 runs per weeks allowing plenty of time for the body to rest and recover. Avoiding injury is also important. I do every alternate day Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Having fixed days means I can focus on my sleep , what I eat and other logistical issues.
