...and it was a long one.....had to run errands first so it had been about four hours since I had eaten. Gobbled a bunch of energy gels, not a good idea. Think I had too many, but I was starved. Had stomach distress at mile three and again at the end. Wanted to try for twelve but at 11.56 I was at the porta potty.....and well, you can figure that one out...ha. (Keepin' it real) Still pretty happy with my time. Kept the clock running through the first porta potty visit and again when I stopped at the car to get more water. Figured the clock wouldn't be stopping on race day.
I ran on a beautiful greenway and ventured farther than I ever had before.
Not my picture; found on a tourism site for the area. This is where I ran. It is beautiful!

Running by the water would be nice! Great job on getting the long run done!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tina. Saw your blog. Wow, 16 miles. You're incredible! Yes, running by the lake is very nice and running a new place is even better!
