I decided to go to the gym (actually a new gym) today to run my long run. I thought by doing this I could control my speed, effort and duration better. I was a little unsure about how this run would go based on my tired legs, etc. and didn't want to get stranded miles away from the house and feeling bad. I was supposed to run 20 miles but resolved in my head to just run as long as I though I was getting positive benefit from the run. That turned out to be 15 miles. I called these miles Marathon Pace Miles even though they were about a minute slower than my first 15 miles on my last marathon even though the HR was about the same. I'm sure this is because I'm still not recovered from the marathon. My legs still felt sluggish from the start. After the 15 miles I rode the Stationary Bike for 10 miles. This was a long and boring workout!

Note: I wasn't very happy with this run. It seemed like I was working much harder than my Time and HR indicated.
