Iced in river yesterday to help nerve pains.  Muscles not even sore from Marathon on Saturday, just sore back and ankle (left) and achilles on right (compensating for bad left side).  HOWEVER super tired and upset stomach due to too many cookies/donuts (krispy kreme, thanks Rachel! :D) post marathon.  I was so queasy the entire run.  First mile 9:17.  Finished with TWO FAST miles-- 6:35, 6:35 (rolling hills, mostly flat- pretty honest two fast).   1/2 mile cooldown 8:00 pace.  AP for 12.5 miles = 8:07.    Now off to Bountiful to my daughter's soccer tournament.  Rachelle-- if you don't call me, I will call you :D.  I am sure you were well under 41 minutes!!! silly girl.

Nice run Julie!! you are amazing, someday I'll get back to those fast honest miles like you!!!!

Wow Julie I am impressed you aren't sore from the marathon Sat. I think that proves how great of shape you are in. I was actually way sore after I ran the 4 hour marathon with my friend.

I feel like a big fatty after eating junk all weekend and then again eating junk today. Sheesh I may turn into a blob before TOU. haha! Great running my friend. :D

oh just "glimpses" of my former insane self last year-- but this time I am not going to get carried away in the mileage. The marathon was just a little "bump" in my build up. Hopefully it doesn't bite me in the butt. But it seems to have done the contrary. Really wish I had a sub40 10k to feel as confident as you Rachelle!! :D. I have learned to run with pain and the faster I go the more endorphins help me not feel it!!

No soreness from the marathon to hold you back!! NICE!

Glad the icing in the river helped with the back pain! Sorry about the Krispy Kremes :) okay...not really. Beautiful Monday run after a marathon!! I too have been a junk eater this weekend. I need a shopping list and some good food to get me back on track.
