Yesterday I tried to work my legs really hard so I could experience running on tired legs during my long run today. Unfortunately I did a good job of that.
My legs felt pretty tired right from the start this morning, but I got going anyways and just kept putting one foot in front of the other. I actually starting feeling stronger as I went on. I ran completely by feel this morning, just focusing on running a strong yet easy pace.
After finishing I was pleasantly surprised with my times and just like I felt, my splits did get faster the farther I ran.
Total run 20 miles, 2:32:03 AP 7:36
I just booked our Boston flights!!! Looks like everything is set now, except for the training part. PM- I usually get home from work around 3:00 on Fridays and it was so beautiful outside. around 70 and sunny, so I jumped on the trampoline with the kids for like a hour and a half. I'll call that my PM workout. It was nice and easy on the joints.
