Met up with a bunch of people at the park and drove up 23 miles (ended up that Mike drove a little further up) My friend marissa drove up 3or 4 miles and then hopped in with us. We dropped most everyone off along the way so it was just mike, dustin, marissa and myself. Ran all together for the first 4 or 5 miles then marissa and I dropped back. At diamond valley we ran into a friend and ran with her a little bit and then I asked marissa if she would care if I ran ahead. I could see dustin and tried to catch him but just didnt have the steam to do it (plus he was moving pretty rapidly). Had a couple visible bathroom breaks (I am getting good at those! hope it doesnt become to regular of a thing, my husband would be mortified if he knew of this, he still cant believe I can just squat behind a bush!) SORRY for all the details!
Just took it easy the rest of the way in to the park, my leg felt ok today, no pain, just tightness. I know I am running differently to compensate because the pad of my foot right below my toes felt like it was smacking the ground today and started to get achy, never had that before.
Avg pace 7:44 and 15 min ice bath after... I am so loving these! Thanks Michelle and Josse for converting me to the ice bath club! |
