I think yesterday's workout took a lot out of me. My legs have that dead feeling that every runner knows so well. I still needed to get out and do my Sunday long run, though.
I've been running 10 miles for my long runs the last four weeks (not counting the time I was in Costa Rica, when I completely skipped them). I want to increase that a little bit over the next couple of weeks, so today I ran a bit over 11 miles.
Again, I not-so-wisely chose the heat of the day, and again we had record high temperatures. I think it hit 84 degrees or more. I struggled through it, never trying to push the pace. Even so, my "easy" pace felt hard. Tomorrow I'll rest.
Today's run totals: 11.4 miles, 1:38:40 (average pace 8:39).
