I have realized that a long run is not happening this week, since snopocalypse 2 is supposed to move in tomorrow, so I doubt there is school for a few days. It is just not worth it to do it on the home mill, so I guess I will just be that much more rested for the Ardomre half in a week. On to today. Me and Vanessa went to the East Y, I am low on laundry and had to wear some old short. mistake. I rolled them 3 times but they still kept threatening to fall off, so there was a lot of self-conscious, uncomfortable hitching. Ran easy but the last mile up 2% at 6:40 pace, which didn't feel particularly comfortable. My conclusion: The last 4 uphill miles at Ardmore will stink no matter what, so I might as well be downright suicidal in the beginning downhill miles and bank as much time as possible. I would not recommend this approach for a full marathon, but for a half, might as well. |
