Had a great day of running today. Did a double and felt strong on both runs and got in a total of 22.0 miles. Foot continues to improve. It felt pretty good for the morning run and even better for the afternoon run. Just confirms to me that Monday's flare up was indeed the result of forgetting to put the heel lift in.
Morning
Hilly route and tackled it feeling good. Morning started out cool but warmed up very quickly, and it was very humid as well. The long sleeved shirt I was wearing became overkill and I rolled the sleeves up and downed most of the bottle of the water I was carrying with me.
Ran 9.0 miles @ 8:23/mile pace.
AHR/MHR - 142/154
Paved and dirt roads.
Very hilly.
Mid 40s to mid 50s, overcast to mostly cloudy, foggy and humid.
Shorts, long sleeved shirt, refl. vest.
Afternoon
Still felt fine and energetic. Cruised along and the pace was only a few seconds slower per mile than the morning run, and it came easy. Started to cloud up, was glad I beat the rain that's expected a bit later.
Ran 13.0 miles @ 8:27/mile pace.
AHR/MHR - 147/157
Paved roads.
Moderately hilly.
Upper 50s, mostly cloudy to overcast.
Shorts, singlet.
