Workout:

  • 20 miles easy
  • Goal to reach 16 miles at 2:40:00

Conditions:

  • 34°
  • N 12 mph
  • Intermittent rain mist and freezing rain

Splits:

  • Overall Average Pace - 10:14  I was hoping to be just under 10:00.
  • 5 mi - 9:58 / 10 mi - 10:04 / 15 mi - 10:10 / 20 mi - 10:44
  • I met my 16 mile goal of 2:40:00, but then I fell apart.
  • At mile 17, I walked a half mile while I refueled. I had to really push myself mentally for the final 3 miles.

Thoughts:

  • I had a nose bleed the entire 20 miles. Clearly, my nose is not healed from my fall.
  • My quadriceps are no longer sore! My knees hurt off and on, but I am not worried that I have long-term damage from my fall. They are tender and stiff when I get out of bed each morning.
  • I took Tynenol and Advil before my run. I took some more around mile 15.
  • I continue to perform daily stretching and strengthing exercises to address my legs.
