change of plans

So Alex and I went on a long run today. We were to meet Jo to go with us. We had planned to go 12 miles but when Jo didnt show we just were like.. ok lets just go 5. Well Jo drove to us and started bolting to get to us. We told her after about a minute of running that we decided to just do 5. You could feel the disapointment in the air. We were getting close to where Alex and I were to turn around and we were giving Jo directions for the remainder and we just decided to go a bit more to make sure she knew where she was going. When we got there we were feeling good so we just decided to go to 12. After stopping a little over half way to get more water at Alex's house, we booked it back. Once we got back to where we started, Jo had to get back to her car so we ran her back and then went a bit more.... whats the point in not doing a half marathon when you are so close! I will have to say that my legs are feeling it today. Over the past 8 days I have run 53.5 miles. Im ready for a good night sleep!
