Well, today was the day. I did my long run of 11 miles. My goal was 2:07:00. My secondary goal was to hit the 2 hour mark at 10:80 miles. So...here is what I did:
11.01 miles in 2:02:56!! WHAT?!
I felt great! I drank at 4 miles, only walked for 0.12 of a mile to take my nitro at mile 7, then walked for 0.20 at mile 9.20. I hit my 9.5 miles at 1:44:00, I hit 10 miles at 1:50:00! I was at 10.75 miles at 2 hours! I almost hit all of my goals and I got those 5 minutes back that I had been lacking! I paced 11:10 on the whole and my slowest mile was mile 10 at 12:33. I even picked it up in the last mile! You can view my route and splits here. I am very proud of myself! I only hope that I do as good in the half scheduled for April 5th. I just want to duplicate this run and then add 2.1 miles!
Here's to the next workout! Until then...
April
