I surprised myself today when I actually decided to take the idea of a pace run seriously. We were supposed to run 13-16 miles today at marathon pace and I ended up doing 15.96 in 2:24- 9:05 pace!! That certainly isn't my expected marathon pace, but I'm wondering now if it could be? Probaly not quite, but it was exciting to feel so good after such a fast run. Well...good is relative since I was feeling super strong the whole way through, but my hips really started to bother me around 8 miles. Mostly my right hip, although both are sore now. I spent time time trying to loosen up with the stick tonight, but I don't know how much it helped. So I'm glad that I tested myself today and found out that if I push it, it is going to hurt. STRETCH STRETCH STRETCH is going to be my goal for the next month! In bed at 8:45 tonight- lots to do tomorrow and I'm exhausted even with my short nap in Dunn Meadow today.
