East run + 2 x 8-sec. hill sprints. 6:01 am, 34° F, 77% humidity,winds 5 SSW. That 16 mile run last Saturday killed me. I was really sore all day Saturday and I was still significantly sore on Sunday. I felt like I was falling apart. I felt worse than I did after running either of my two marathons. Because my hips were still out of shape on Sunday, I decided to take Monday off. I didn't run or do the shred or anything. But I felt better on Monday, so I got out and ran today. I actually felt pretty good on today's run. I'm supposed to do 16 miles with Michelle again next Saturday and I have some trepidation about that. Maybe we ran it too fast last week, especially the first few miles. Maybe I can talk them into going really slowly for the first couple of miles. AP: 9:56. Splits: 10:32, 9:40, 10:07, 9;46, 9:30. Hill sprints: 7:47, 6:47.
