Sat July 19th - Long Run - 18.3mi

Time of day 5:30 PM
Distance 18.30 mi
Shoe Air Pegasus +
Comments Near perfect running weather. Felt effortless through 10. First 01:15 was hilly and mix of trails. Leveled out the final 6 on canal path. Started to hurt for some water around mile 15, started to pay for it in the end. Strange numbness in my right leg for the last 1.5 miles. Walk/jogged it in to play it safe without overexerting myself. Still have a ways to go, not feeling as strong as I would like on the long runs.

Comments River Loop. 3 miles warm-up 20 min at goal marathon pace, about 3/4 mile easy, 10 min goal marathon pace, cool down. Wanted to lock into 6 min miles no matter the effort. A little tougher than I had hoped but Ill take it considering the amount of sawdust and Bondo I likely breathed in today.

Comments BMRC workout. Only a couple die hards out tonight in the thunderstorm. Pouring rain, redirected us to the pavement loop, the grass loop was under water. Workout was 8 x 1000 on 45 secs recovery at 10 mile race pace. Felt good, decided to run a bit faster and chase down one of the faster guys. Never felt worn out. I much prefer the rain and pavement workouts to high humidity on thick grass trails. Went out hard thanks to a young 16 year old prodigy pushing the pace (unfortunately it was too hot for him as well as he dropped after 3). Settled in on 3:15s and closed a bit quicker. Lets hope for rain at Lehigh.
