TM Miles - 14 2:10:40 9:27, 9:22, 9:39, 9:07, 9:24, 9:17, 9:44, 9:14, 9:22, 9:21, 9:22, 9:12, 9:19, 8:25 We were taking the kids skiing today, so I had to get my run done early. I didn't want to go outside in the dark (and cold), so opted for the TM. This is the farthest I've ever gone on the TM. I did a 6 mile run first. This seemed to take forever. My legs took a long time to warm and I knew I still had a long time to go. After the first "leg", I reset the TM, took a gu and water and stretched for a minute. Then I started my second 6 mile run. I watched another "Law and Order". It was sad when I would see people come in, run 6-7 miles and do weights, then leave and I still had several miles to go. After my second "leg", I reset the TM again, took a gu and water and then started my last 2 miles. My body felt good. I could definitely feel my hip/piraformis, but it didn't prevent me from running. I did a lot of visualizing from last week's race to help pass the time. Stretching, foam rolling and a LONG ice bath. Foam rolled again when I got home. Showered and headed up to Park City to watch all my ski bunnies! My shins are definitely bugging this evening. More icing.
