Good run. Could've /Should've gone further. Actually we thought we were going 8 until we clocked it afterwards and realized it was just short of that. I want to do 10 next weekend. Heather & I are getting really comfy chatting and going slow on our long runs. We decided we need to meet up with some other folks to motivate us and pick up our speed a bit. There's a group of local girls that we crossed paths with this morning (they were doing 10) and they invited us to run with them next week. We took them up on it! Since its a long run, we don't care much about our time or going very fast, but we can tell we are going REALLY slow on our long runs.. But over all good run. I took some GU midway (after 4 miles) and had a great 2nd half , felt like I was floating. Anybody out there have any feedback on GU and other gels. Don't know if I should get hooked or not?! I hadn't taken any since the 1/2 marathon and just remembered this morning that I had some and thought it might help with energy on the 2nd half of my run today. It did help. But not sure how these gels really are for our bodies? |
