Felt really good to run again after taking 3 days off. We got to the in-laws house at 1:00 am Thursday morning and I was just way too tired from driving to run yesterday. I dug up my Temporary YMCA punch pass and still had 1 punch on it so I woke up early and went to the Y. 12 miles on the treadmill in 1:22. I'm pretty sure the entire cardio room is slanted on a negative downhill cause it seems exceptionally easy, even putting the treadmill at 1% incline. Oh well, that's OK it makes up for the treadmills in Prague. My wife decided she wants to run the 30K Bighorn ultra in June (not that 30K is an ultra) so I guess that means I'm going to sign up for the 50M again. She wanted me to run the 30K with her but I told her I couldn't run that slow for 18 miles and would just run the 50 and catch up with her :) I'm almost positive I can beat my last years time as long as I can keep from falling and bruising my ribs every 5 miles. |
