Exercise Log 3.31.14 (Spring Run ’14, Cardio only)

Well, ran 21.45 miles today (canceled leg day to accomodate for the long run), although I admit after mile 15 I stopped maintaining a running pace and it turned into a series of walks with intermittent hobbled jogging. The total trip took 4 hours and 45 minutes, I started in Frick Park and ran down via the Waterfront to the GAP and from there all the way downtown to Point State Park then headed right back. I was able to maintain an average of about an 10-12 minute mile for the first 14 miles then it started to slip noticeably. To say I’m tired right now is an understatement, and I’m cold. But I’m in one piece with about 2000 calories of food to replace some of the 2500 or more I burned, chugging it all down with a bunch of Coke Zero and that’s what matters at the end of the day.

Right?

Also loved some of the sidewalk graffiti, it was encouraging to see! Today was a beautiful day whether you guys were at the ball games or just out and about, I hope you all got to experience the first real day of spring weather today!

It was a sun shining day, finally glad the winter passed!
