This was ROB'S MARATHON PACE (5:40). I had hoped to help him through an entire 5 mile loop. (We cut out the beach hill.) Our first mile together was a 5:34. That felt great. Then into the second mile I just shut down. My body just gave out. It was very frustrating for me, considering I know I can do 5 miles at 5:40 pace (or at least close). I felt very very tired. I puked when I woke up, which was weird. I've been a non-puker ever since my mom made me clean up my own (she'd get sick cleaning it up so we had to clean up our own) Then I had the other kind all day and could eat a thing! Shin's were a non-issue which is great! I made up for the lack of nutrients at Giordanno's late, after I felt better.
Rob was a dominating force I must say. It was impressive & inspiring to watch his stride so easily tackle the workout. He's ready, a force to be wreckoned with! Next time he does this workout I'll be hydrated, and ready to provide full support (as if he needed it)! |
