I did it, I dunno how cuz I felt pretty lousy today (girl stuff). I got my long run in today. Did 8.25 according to my Garmin which I dunno if that's actually right. I haven't bought a new one yetI really hope it is though
I ran for an hour and 20 minutes.

No matter how far, that's a victory worth celebrating.

Completed a half marathon on 2/28. Was naughty and went in the hot tub after, instead of icing as advised. Paying for it, still. Tried to do five miles a few days ago and was miserable and stiff. No more running for a week. Thank goodness I can bike and swim.
Need to have a recovery strategy for longer distances and not eat/do what feels "good" at the time!

A mile and a half barefoot both yesterday and the day before. Man, was I sore, in a good way. I know this is a little over-enthusiastic, but from the places I'm sore, the previously unused muscles and the imbalances, it sure feels like half the problems in my body come from shoes. Yeesh.
Had to put them on again today for my long run though. "Just" 15 miles, since I just got over that cold plus a busy week with no running and not too much sleep. It was plenty. Back to business now...Speed comes from what you put behind you. - Judi Ketteler

Concrete is not my friend. Ran a tad over 4 today downtown and now I feel like I ran 12, ugh. Gonna need to hop on the bike tomorrow to get my legs back to normal now. After I ran my long run Sunday that following Monday morning I went for a nice moderate paced road ride and OMG what a difference that made. My hips weren't hurting, no tender anything after the ride. I usually have sore hips after a long run like that. I just thought it was odd the bike seemed to help so much. Yay more reasons to ride my bike
Who am I kidding, like I NEED a reason, LOL.
