17 days ago - still crying, maybe not so much on the outside, but inside i felt like i looked as i crossed the finish.
11-16 days ago - was the longest I've ever gone without any type of running in years. 6 full days.
10 days ago - I told my coach that I needed more miles. my longest training run for the marathon was 13.1 one miles (the la jolla half). One of the best things I like about my coach's training approach is less miles; more intensity. but the intensity didn't prepare my body for how it would feel after 3 hours of running. So I asked, nay demanded, more miles. I am his boss, right?
9-3 days ago - I finished the highest mileage of running I've had in over a year. darn near 40 miles!
I've spent the last 3 days being sore to my eyeballs.
I love the face...I think that I might end up w/ a similar expression strewn across my entire body whilst on the asphalt saying, "Ryry was right..." I'm still aiming for 4:59:59 but damn, I'm freaking tired!!!
