Yesterday's 8.5 mile mountain run killed my legs, so I dreaded today's 12+ mile run. I could barely jog, so I walked a lot and stretched in the first 3 miles. After that, I recovered and ... read more

I'm doing split long runs, so these add up to 21 miles for the weekend. All hills. Only 3 more weeks before taper begins for Big Sur. What happened to all that time I thought I had to train?
