Northward

I am going to the Galilee tomorrow for three days of hiking, swimming in the Kinneret, sleeping under the stars and wandering around a festival.

In running news, I jogged 10km today. That's 6.25 miles. It takes a certain focus to run for that long. Up until a few weeks ago, I had been averaging 7 miles per week for a three month stretch. The intent was to strengthen the lower leg muscles/tendons/ligaments, even though there was little progress in speed or stamina. A few weeks ago I started increasing my mileage. Three weeks ago I ran 10, two weeks ago 10 again, last week 12. I should do 15 miles this week and 20 miles next week.
