Boston Marathon Long Run
Monday, 3-13-2006
20 miles in 2:04:35 with pick ups of 1', 1', 5', 1', 1', 5' en route every 10' leaving me with either 9' or 5' recovery after 35' of running.
* Hammered from the gun as I had not run much over the weekend due to work and felt a bit weak in the legs from atrophy, but I hit 51-minutes of my first 8 mile loop, then 48 on my second 8 mile loop and finished up with a 25-minute deathmarch last 4 miles in close to 90-degree heat and humidity. I was absolute toast when I was done... as I changed about two-tones darker on the run (my first without a shirt for the middle, it was so hot) and ended up sitting in the pool, legs over the edge, chugging a 2-Liter bottle of Dr. Pepper just to hydrate and get some sugars since I ran out of Gatorade. Ugh. Didn't feel like eating anything until 2pm. Will attempt 4 miles this PM in the heat, if motivated and recovered.
