After the run several of us went out to breakfast, and I was fairly good about it - having a latte, granola, yogurt and berries. Then the girls I was with gave me cupcakes for my birthday...so of course I had to have one! I wasnt home for long after and got hungry again, so I had lunch (followed by another cupcake), and only a couple of hours after that we met some friends for a early dinner. AND I AM STILL HUNGRY. Oh well! br>
Training Log
Time: 1 hours, 9 minutes, 56 seconds Distance:12 miles Pace: 10:50min/mi
I had two hours of sleep last night - not only was the neighborhood noisy, but I was just too nervous about the run. I woke up nervous. I was nervous when I started. But it all turned out well! It felt long, so I am not saying it was easy ... but throughout the run my body felt pretty good and I found myself plesantly satisfied with the whole experience. At the end of the run I was definitely feeling tired, my energy level was decreasing and my muscles were sore. I finished without any problem, but I know that it would have been difficult if I was supposed to run any more. 12 was about my max for today :) I trained with Clif shot-bloks for energy, but it wasn't enough ... I still was feeling like my body was missing a lot of nutrients and/or energy but the end of the run.
Progress Made
- Longest run - 12 miles!
- Worked on training with energy supplements
- Changed my breakfast, maybe it was part of the success factor for today?
Lessons Learned
- My energy really began to wear about mile 10, I might need to increase the shot-blocks or do them at different times/intervals
- It was also hard timing water/gatorade. Too much and it sloshed in my stomach, too little and I was still thirsty ... need to keep working on it
