Sunday long run
August 7th 7:30am
Ran with Running Room
Distance: 23km (ended up being 24.5 for me)
How I felt before: Tired slept late not a good sleep
What I ate: Yogurt and a banana
What I wore, Sugoi long sleeve, shorts, wrightsock and Asics Nimbus V
Running group only 6 people
No running buddy in particular floated around
The first five km were the hardest. I struggled to find the proper pace and rhythm. The long sleeve shirt made things less comfortable than usual (I'm used to tank tops) I had the zipper all the way down.
The temp warmed up slightly and the humidity was rising (difficulty 5-6 on ten)
After first 10km broke from the pack and ran 5km by myself and then returned to the pack. Ten and ones were helpful. I could feel the fatigue set in.
Sprinted the last km (4:45) and stretched were.
How I felt during the run. Great. At km 19 Dimitra, Alain and myself were sprinting. 4:50/km
It felt really great as there was a light cross breeze.
Concerns: I weighed myself yesterday and following the run at the gym and at home and I lost 6 pound. I went from 144 to 138 lbs, representing a 4.10 % drop. Must have been water weight but I rehydrated and did not feel thirsty. Hmm..
Effort was there but I need to rest better.
