Comments:
Picked Thomas up at the Residence Inn and continued running. It was really hot out, but I took it better than I normally do, and I think I am starting to get accustomed to running in warmer weather. The run was pretty tough near the end b/c of the heat and the fatigue in my legs. Usually I train 6 days a week, but now that i am running back-to-back 55s I need to run 7 days/week. So my legs haven't had a rest in a while. This was evident b/c the last 4-5 miles my calves were really tired. Still I didn't expect to go this far and this is the longest I have ever run in any significant so I think this was a good step in my training. Also running w/ Thomas helped b/c he is faster than me and he really pushed me to keep the pace we were going. The run was really 11.55 but the website only goes to tenths (not a big deal anyway).
I Park to Residence Inn to Robinhood to Graham School to R for V course to Unionville to 19 to Rochester back to Robinhood and home same way.
