Workout: Long run (Goal: Run 16 miles in 2:40:00
- 16 mi / 2:38:29 / 9:52
- Splits: 2 mi - 10:13 / 4 mi - 9:27 / 6 mi - 9:28 / 8 mi - 11:06 / 10 mi - 9:44 / 12 mi - 9:51/ 14 mi - 9:33 / 16 mi - 9:42
Thoughts:
- I don't know what happened between mile 8 - 10. I don't recall struggling through those miles. Perhaps I became mindless and lost focus.
- I felt pretty disheartened when I finished. The thought of running 10 more miles seemed an impossibility today.
- My family pointed out that I prepared my body and mind to run 16 mles. My body did what it was supposed to do. I should feel satisfied.
- Also, it was a difficult week. I had 4 migraines. Those deplete me of all energy. I can't eat. I can't focus. I barely exist. I should be grateful that I was able to complete this workout.
- Here's hoping for a better week of health and tapering!
