Legs were trashed from Wednesdays workout, I think that just tanked this for me worse than I had expected. I have also likely lost some fitness. But this was effectively 1.5 minutes slower than I ran at salt lake 10k with 600 feet elevation loss compared to flat haha. So pretty huge difference in performance. Marathon winning time was 2:39 and 3rd place was 2:50 so I am a little bummed I didn't keep on course for that, bonking while pacing a 2:50 marathon and getting sick twice during the last 2 months was a big mistake. But this has helped reignite the fire within my belly, which has been suffering due to muggy weather and generally feeling off. Time to build back up to 60-70 miles per week and make stuff happen. |
