Our "store group" that has defected and is starting earlier than the rest is growing. We ended up with 8 people there today. We started out and right away I knew I was in trouble. My legs were heavy and tired....I am starting to think they have never recovered from my race. We did the same route as last week, just adding on a bit. The last 6 miles, the walking at the water stops got longer and I started feeling the run. It is a great group and I really enjoy running with them. Avg Pace 8:40 |
