Notes
The only reason I'm giving the quality of this run two stars is because I actually stuck out the full 50k even though I wanted to quit at mile 16. My goal was to get 40 miles today. I started the first loop a bit slower to try to run even splits for the first two 15.5mi laps. Everything just went downhill after the first hour. Not sure what it was? Maybe some lack of sleep this week caught up to me? Or my legs weren't fully recovered from Sunday's long run? I just had very heavy legs, from Step 1. Drank lots of water, kept up on good calories. The positive takeaway is that I spent 6 hours on my feet and I didn't quit at 4 hours. However, I still only ran 50k!
