Notes
K, GMP was between 9.73-12.73 miles with Casey leading the way. My GPS says 7:27 average from 9.7-12.7 in SportTraks, but it also cut off .3 miles so I'll take it. Casey's watch said 7:25. I stopped for about 3 minutes saying goodbye, but all other water stops I kept running and just did an out and back so I didn't have to stop the clock. I think that's why I had such a good run today- I ran with the group but didn't have to stop running. I actually started at the Hatchery with Theresa because I didn't think we would make it to Bella Bru on time. But then we met in the middle and I started running with Casey, Kathleen, Stacey and Terry, which is why maps have a lot of turn arounds in them. But I'm glad I did because they totally helped me with my GMP. The sucky thing was I had to turn around at 16.5 to back to the hatchery by myself, and I was only supposed to 4.9 miles... I had 6 to go. Turned on Zac Brown Band, and listened to repeats of "Chicken Fried" and "The Devil went down to Georgia" the whole way.. and as you can see, I had an AWESOME run! The achilles pain came at the beginning of the run but went away sometime before I met the group. And besides the normal tightness and calf paing I got from yesterday's pain, I felt good the whole way. I even think I finally broke the LunarElite's in! I think I like them! They are responsive, but still light. I think these are going to be my Eugene shoes! Great run!
