AM - 2.5 shakeout plus dynamic stretches
AM2 - 20 mile LR. wanted to do 30(again), but i got a stomach cramp that i didn't think would fade away after i hit 12, so i dropped the pace a bit, hoping it wouldn't take me out before i hit at least 15. cramp ended up fading after 16, but i knew that drop in pace meant i'd used too much energy to hit the 3-hour mark without it damn near killing me, so i decided to stop at 20 and dropped the pace again.
splits:
6:54, 6:57, 6:55, 7:02, 7:01
7:06, 7:02, 6:49, 7:00, 7:04
7:00, 6:55, 6:35, 6:38, 6:39
6:27, 6:12, 5:55, 5:41, 5:24
avg pace 6:40. A++ run.
PM - 2.5 easy. just getting some circulation in the legs. felt good; i remember the 20 i did two weeks ago knocked me out for like 36 hours so i'm happy that wasn't the case today. feel like i made a big jump in fitness last week out of nowhere, or maybe it's just because the temps finally dropped, who knows. either way i've been having trouble getting in a rhythm since i took a few days off at the end of august and feel like this is what i need to get locked back in.
