Day 40: Today is was my long run. I was suppose to do around 6 - 8 miles because it is a recovery week, but I'm not sure what I am recovering from since I just came off vacation and I was sick for a few days. So I took this day to go out for a longer run then what is planned. I ran with the Hoochies today done at the river and it was a nice flat run. To bad I don't need flat runs but it was still nice. It was chilly this morning and very foggy, but with the humidity I was sweating like it was 90 degrees out. This first 5 miles was a struggle with some issues I was dealing with with my body but after I got it all figured out my run turned out to be really good. Towards the end my knees started bothering me again so it looks like the tape is going to come back out. For a training run I ran 12.5 miles in 1:52 which I am really happy about! Maybe I'm getting fast? I do have a good group of people though that I run with that push me a little to go fast which I love.
After my run I enjoyed some coffee with people from the running group then off to Atlanta Fitness Dive to workout. Once again I got my butt kicked by Pamela. By the time we were done my whole upper body was shaking and in pain, but it felt so good. Is that weird? lol
Finally after working a midnight shift and getting off work at 6am then going straight to the river to run and then to the gym to lift weights it's finally time to go to bed for a few hours before the house cleaning begins.
Good Night till tomorrow!!!!!
