Yesterday was my standard long day. I was to run 15, and I definitely had my head in it. I was ready for every last mile of it... Just not the hills. I wanted to extend my 14 mile run from last my favorite run, so I could end it at Kim's office. Then she could adjust me and make me not hurt anymore, AND drive me the rest of the way home. One thing I always fail to consider when I'm mapping a run here in B-town. Hills, hills, and hills. I Extended the beginning of the run to loop out to the outskirts of town, and got ruined by the rolling mounds the entire way. I had a hard time getting up the gusto to finish my run as strong as I would have liked. I went 11 miles, and it took me a whopping 88 minutes. Which would have been ok with me if I went farther. But, all things considered, I loved it. Then the end of the run worked out just as I had planned. The perfect chiropractor, the perfect adjustment, and the best ride home ever! Haha. By the way, yesterday was 111 days.
Now I know my mind is completely gone. I'm signing up for the Chicago Marathon... In October. At least, I'll have a good 2-3 months of recovery before I start training again. I LOVE IT.
Thats all for now. Im gonna cram in a little recovery run then go to Oliver for some wine. Be jealous.
