We all ran the 10 miles in Tyler Park Friday after school. Joanne joined us for the first half and Ron biked out to cheer us on and take data for his column. I have to say it wasn't that bad looking back on it, but during the run it seemed far from fun. Strange things start to happen when you run 10 miles - I can't explain why running 8 miles is so different on your body than the 10, but it most certainly is....I came home and could hardly move, just wanted to sleep, had what I can only describe as "rug burn" everywhere on by body where there was friction (and places where I didn't even realize there would be friction) and I was starving until today. I wasn't sore, or anything like that, just felt heavy. You would think after burning that many calories you would feel as light at as feather!
Everyone did a bang up job - I definitely think we are ready now...and is it true that we don't have to do more than 6 miles until Broad Street?!?! If true, that eases the mind a bit.
Wow...I was so tired, I couldn't even suck my stomach in for this picture!
ReplyDeleteI gotta say... I felt GREAT Friday... OK... so I only ran 4.3 miles... (and Ron even threw me on the back of his bike for some of it)... OK... that's not true, but what's a mile here and there?
