8:00am Psalm 88 - Proverbs 8 First long run in what seems like forever! My foot was aching for the first mile until that stupid nerve managed to tuck itself in somewhere out of the way. After that it was smooth sailing until about 13 miles, then it started to bug me quite a bit, but it would come and go so I just sucked it up and finished the run. It feels fine now that I've given it a little rest. Hopefully tomorrow's visit to the doc for another shot will take the pain down another notch for the long run next week. He says each one should reduce the pain a little more than the last... Other than that I felt great during the run. I resisted looking at my watch other than to note when I was about 9 miles away from home so I'd know when to turn around. I just ran at an effort I felt I could keep up for 18 miles and had no idea how fast I was actually running until I got home.
