Total Distance
20.00

Wanted to get a nice base building workout in. Only thought about doing around 16 but one road lead to anouther and by the time I got home it was 20.15 on the garmin. Chest pain pretty bad for first 5.5 or so then it didn't really bother me on the run- returned later in the day. Just ran smooth and easy trying to see what kind of shape I was in. Felt good and never ran out of gas. I wasn't pacing myself at all but ended up just in front of the 7:00 guy- my pace time was 6:59 min/miles for the 20 miles. Legs feel good, I just hope to get over whatever it is that's wronge with my chest. May see a Dr. today.

I'm not a dr. guy at all, but I know that when I start contemplating going to one, that is a sign that something is bugging me enough that I really should get in. So go and get it figured out. By the way, we are not preparing to run TO Boston, just the actual marathon - so take it easy on those miles will you!

Hey Superfly,

Make sure you drinking enough fluids. you may want to take a potasim supplement with all the sweating.
