Ran from my house up over skyline drive then down to main and on to the Dixie Center. From there I hit the trail over to Bloomington Hills and then made my way to my mother-in-laws house. Then from there around the hill past Stone Cliff over by Steve's new house and up by the corn maze. I stayed on that road over the river and up into Washington. Then up by golf course and back to home. I ran right in the hottest part of the day around 80 or so. My shoulders and neck got a pretty good burn in the 2:15:25 it took me to run the 20 miles. I never tried to push it at all- but on the fiip side I never could get into a good stride. I ran in some new shoes New Balance.... I think the shoes will be ok but only from runs under 9 miles or so. If I would have had a different pair of shoes I think this run would have gone alot better. Also had to stop 3 times (dixie center, in-laws, port-a-potty in a construction site) for a bio break. I really need to prep my stomach better on a long run like that. Yada yada yada.... |
