Sunday and Monday Run Recaps (Exciting Title)

My blogging muse has not inspired me today to engulf you with hilarity or motivation thoughts. But as this blog's initial conception was to recap my training and runs, I'll keep it short to do that today.

Sunday: 14 miles, 7:45am. Seems to have been a pretty popular distance for the weekend. Was real nice to run in the cooler air. I had two goals for this run, slow down and work on my fueling strategy. The Hanson Plan says I should be running my long run ~7:40 minute miles. I've been doing 7:05-7:20. Yesterday... 7:15. I need to work on this. Fueling wise, I did good. I bought:

 They settled good, easy to take, light taste.

I was a bit tired the rest of the day and had trouble getting my appetite going until...6pm.

Today, 6 mile recovery run. I woke up at 4:30am, and felt a little nauseous. I was tempted to skip today, but got up anyways and see how things progressed. I took a couple pepto, and told myself, this is the slowest, shortest run of the week, tough it out. So I did. I only had a few minutes of uneasiness, but the rest of the run was pretty enjoyable. Here is a photo from the start:

So your time wasn't a complete bore, here is a funny running video (WARNING: EXPLICIT LANGUAGE)



Have a great day!
