I had planned to run 10 miles today with some tempo intervals... but the past few days I have felt super off, sluggish, & legs are extremely tired. I had to setlle for a shorter and easier run. I think I'll take tomorrow off and hopefully on Sunday I'll feel re-energized for some tempo intervals. | | Comments(1) |

I placed 1rst in my division: F20-29, 3rd female overall, and 18th overall M&F. I just ran the worst race of my life... it was one disaster after the other. Last year I ran the same course in 1:37:48... 4 minutes faster... I thought I would get faster with more training. I am new to using the energy/power gels, I started off slower than normal so at mile 3 I consumed a power gel. I did not get enough water after the gel at the next few aid stations... I felt extremely thirst, so at mile 9, I stopped and drank 2 cups of water. Finally I felt better, but it was kinda too late, plus I had 1.5 mile hill right after feeling better. I'm trying to let it go, but man that sucks to train hard and run so much slower than all my other 1/2 marathon times. In two weeks I have a full marathon, hopefully i get my mojo back. My race pae today is pretty close to my predicted full marathon pace. Thanks for reading. | | Comments(2) |
