LOL... it isnt all that bad. However, I do feel that my knee will have a much higher success rate of staying healthy for the 27 miler in a month since it is all on single track trail then on pavement.20+ miles on flat asphalt.
I wanted to kill myself. The most boring run ever. I'll be sticking to trails and steep hills from now on.
Run hard folks.
There you go. I love hills. I love climbing them, not going down them.3.72 miles at 9:04 pace, ran the big hill three times, I'm finally getting used to it.

In my experience, and this is just with my body, but I am twice as injury prone going downhill then uphill. I lose form, the impact is greater, on trails you could really make a big mistake... so that is why I make myself love the uphill.I'd much rather run down hill than up!
Nice Pace Jill.Speedwork on TM this morning for 4 miles. Reps of 1/4 mile at 8:27 min pace.
Good job!did my full workout today, was a little stiff in the chest but seems fine. Put up another 7.5 miles
Your IT band pain is because we have been talking about it too much with the compression sleeve stuff.Just about 25mi on trails.
Dragging a bit, and feeling some IT pain on the left.
Like Joel said, loving the back2back...but my back2back long runs have continued for months, logging 20-30 miles everyday, except Sunday. I am surprised I'm not in more pain, but mentally, I'm so fried. I want my race to be here now, finish it, and stop worrying every night before I go to bed.
I don't know how the f--- I'm going to run for 500 miles straight up and down a mountain, but whatever: show up and shut up.
Train hard folks.
Went on weight watchers last week. Want to lose 20 more pounds and do the 2014 Goofy. Gained 3 pounds first week.
A buddy of mine did a full down there last year and said it wasnt bad at all. About 500 feet of vertical elevation (which was a little surprising, but not bad at all)11.85 at 9:09 pace, only 1.3 miles to add before the Berry Half Marathon in three weeks. 32 degrees, felt like 27 with the wind chill. Now to hop in the shower and go to work for the morning...
Has anyone run the Gulf Coast Half on Pensacola Beach? I think I'm going to run in at the beginning of April. It's right by my parents house and it's a very flat course. My only concern is the wind.
