Day 14 - the LONG Run day ...


My workout today has me pretty exhausted - my legs feel like cider blocks and I am struggling right now with flights of stairs 

Ran 17 miles today ... Goal was to keep HR in zone, eat and hydrate properly and run a steady pace ... mile splits: 9:15, 9:17, 9:17, 9:04, 9:21, 9:11, 9:27, 9:11, 9:15, 8:59, 9:07, 9:25, 9:07, 9:24, 9:34, 9:28, 8:57.

Ate an e-gel at miles 4 and 10 (150 calories) and consumed 32 ounces of liquid over the course of the run.

Total run time 2:37:29 - total time HR in zone 2:14:00 ... BUT I felt like crap the last three miles ... weighed myself when I got home and I lost EIGHT pounds so obviously I screwed my nutrition and hydration ... 2 out of three ain't bad but that's the one that will knock me out of a marathon or put a DNF on my Ironman ... ugh!

Always something to work on and fix!
