18 miles, AP 8:39

Saturday's race really took a toll on my body. The 18 miler this morning was much tougher than I had anticipated. Other than the two miles I ran with Matt it seemed to drag on forever. Hot ... boring ... lonely ... tired ... blah blah blah. But if there is any chance of me running the D-News full I needed to get in some type of long run. What to do?

Oh yeah ... took a few walking breaks because I was just feeling stinky!

.5 easy, 8 threshold, .5 easy

Pain in lower left leg as the day progressed. Felt quite a bit better with ibuprofen but still very noticeable.

Tried to run but stopped within a couple of minutes due to lower left leg pain. I am 95% sure that it is medial tibial stress syndrome. In otherwords, shinsplints. I seem to do so much better when I run more miles but slower miles. Trying to compensate for the lack of time I have had available to run I have increased the intensity. Looks like I have increased it too quickly. Need to re-evaluate the plan.

Unsure about D-News. I will give it a couple days and see what happens.

The good thing is that there is no time to worry and stress about it! :) :) :)

Happy Friday, everyone. :)

** Btw, a couple of people told me not to run the 18 miler on Monday so quickly after the Spartan. You know who you are ... and yes, I should have listened. :)

10 miles, AP 7:54

Waited until a little before 10:30 this morning so that I could run in the heat. Heat has always been my nemesis, as it was today as well. I just feel icky when it is hot. Don't we all? When I left it was 78 degrees, when I got home it was 82 degrees. I stopped in the middle of my run to lay in the intersection of 5 different sprinklers. Then again to drench my tank in a drinking fountain a few miles later. Seriously, I am such a baby.

Took ibuprofen last night to reduce some of the inflammation, I also taped up my leg. It faired fairly well during the run, which makes me happy. :)

Happy Saturday everyone!

I am so excited to see how Walter does tomorrow. I have thought about it a hundred times on my run today. Beyond amazing!

A huge congrats to my SSF as well on her PR this morning. WAHOO!!! :) :) :)
