Notes
Felt tired the last couple of days - suspect symptoms of overtraining, so took Fri and Sat off completely. Was, therefore, expecting this to be a nice easy long run. Not so. Knew from the outset that something was very, very wrong. Had hoped for 14 miles out/back. By the time I got to 10m I was puking and shitting. Luckily I was on trails. Limped/walked/jogged back home for an average pace of 9:00. The sort of pace I would hope to average in the 12hr race in Apr. Was absolutely shot. Shivering, confused, nauseous, felt like I was going to pass out. Had hot bath and went to bed for the rest of the day. Not one for the record books. I am now seriously concerned about my ability in the 12hr. As for the sub 60 attempt - this may have to wait for another day.
