Notes
Long Run (part I of II)
Ran this down to McMullen Greenway fr Earth Fare in Ballantyne (up to Trader Joes to start and then to the 2.75 mi mark and back). Wildly fluctuating temps -- 63 at Earth Fare, temp dropped to 50 degrees in section of Greenway next to creek or swamp (it was cold, and then warm). Felt fatigue in legs after first mile and really felt like I was "dragging" (felt like "bonk" fatigue, lead coursing thru veins). Part of this were the long sections on the boardwalk. Once I got off the long boardwalk section coming back fr Trade Joes, started to feel better and got into a nice rhythm and started to feel much better -- seemed much easier and legs felt much lighter (and this shows in the improvement in pace although from a perceived effort standpoint it felt the same -- just "easier" (mile 7 was a climb up fr the greenway to Johnston Rd and last .85 of a mile had the biggest climb?).
