First Double of Training Plan

Today I ran what I hope will be the first of many doubles. I ran five miles at lunch and then ran another five miles after work. I'm going to try to run at lunch at least two or three times a week. These lunchtime runs will be short (five miles or so) and easy paced runs. They shouldn't take much out of me but will add relatively stress free miles and will help warm me up for my afternoon/evening runs. Mileage run at lunch won't be counted as part of any race specific training schedule.

Totals for the day are 10.61 miles (5.3 at lunch and 5.31 after work).
