My training schedule called for a 10K race today, but I don't know of any 10Ks being run in the middle of the Utah winter. I wasn't sure what kind of mileage I should tackle today, but I decided to do my long run with Locomotion, as usual. Once I got out on the run I thought that I would only run 9 or 10 miles then call it quits, but I felt so good that I decided to do the entire 15 mile course. The Loco Draper Run has a good variety of terrain, and I ended up with about 6 miles of uphill, 6 miles of downhill, and right around 3 miles of flat. I also did the run pretty slowly, with a 10:46/mile average pace (although my fastest mile was 8:17). I'm starting to pay the price for doing such a long run though - my calves and hamstring are pretty tight this evening, and I think I may have overworked my IT band. I'll do some stretching and icing before I go to bed, and hopefully everything will feel better in the morning.
