The farthest I have ever Gone!

I changed my long run days to Tuesdays as I will be going riding/cycling on Saturdays and I know that my legs cannot handle a long run and a long cycling on the same day (I am a wimp!).

Stats:

Distance: 12 miles

Time: 124minutes

Fluids: 30oz (Refilled at the Milville Park)

Weather: Sunny but not too hot--around 60 degrees. Wore SPF80 on my face and arms...safe is the word.

Ran alone with my iPod to keep me company. I love this town! It is perfect for outdoor activities. The mountains, the quiet neighborhoods...just divine for the run.

I felt really great all during the run, I was going a good pace, my legs didn't cramp. My shins didn't hurt and when they did all I had to do was change the way I was stepping and the bothersome ache went away.

Change to implement: If I am going to wear a tank must put vaseline under my arms! I got chaffed due to my chubbette arms! Dude, no fun!

Way to go! You are a glutton for punishment, aren't you. ; )

Tomorrow I will be "legally tortured" by my personal trainer. I hope I don't wimp out.

Huggz!

12 miles doesn't sound like a wimp to me. You're doing great!

Good job!! Feels great, doesn't it?

Try Body Glide for the chafing - less gross and easier to apply than vaseline.

That's great! I so wish I could do that. I have a bike but I hate riding it near traffic. My driveway is all down hill (or up if you are coming the other way..lol..) Once you get to the bottom of our drive you are on the Highway (and they drive fast on that one.)

I love reading your blog. You are very inspiring!
