This Week: 9/28 - 10/3
Total Miles Completed: 33.15
Average Pace: 12: 52
So slow, but I did my first 20 miler! Just like last week's long run, I felt good the first 12, but then my legs and feet started to tighten up. The last 6 miles I would run for about .75 miles, stop and stretch for a minute (really my ankles and insteps), walk for a minute and repeat. I felt just fine when I finished, not really fatigued and mentally good except that I'm worried about my feet. I think next week I'm going to go back to an older pair of shoes (the pair I wore for my last two runs are only about 60 miles broken-in).

Good job on your 20 miler!
ReplyDelete20 miles in one DAY?!???
ReplyDeleteIt would take me a 2 weeks to WALK 20 miles!
Besides, I might spill my cocktail!
