Decided to swap out my two hour ride today with a two hour run. With the marathon about 5 weeks out I need all the running I can get. Following my brick yesterday, I wasn't sure how well the legs would feel, but they weren't bad at all.
I started out tight and felt my achilles for the first hour, but then everything went numb, in a good way - or maybe my form improved. Tried to keep the heart rate pegged around 140 and averaged between 8:30 and 9:14 miles. Hills in the first hour, rollers in the second. Mostly focused on keeping the heart rate under 150. Took one gel and one full bottle of Gatorade Endurance for the entire run.
Run Summary:
Time: 2:01
Avg HR: 146
Distance 13.46 miles
