2008- Run 48 LSD X Vancouver

18 Miles in 2:57..........

Tenth Long Run of the year.. 18 miles! Actually, it wasn't so bad.. same routine.. Carry water to 40 minutes out; stash water and have a piece of chocolate bar (Snickers), run 20 more minutes, turn around, return to water stop; have another bite of Snickers Bar & water. Careful not to eat too quickly. Returning home . Another bite of Snickers at 100 minutes.. Arrive at start after 2 hours, or 13 miles... Finish Snickers bar.. Then only another 5 mile gets you to 18... It wasn't so bad really. Key was to start out very slow. Even ran a couple miles on trail in the first leg. The hardest part of the day was the hot yoga tonight! 90 minutes of "sweating like a dog in car!" Came home and ate too much but hard to avoid! Tomorrow, day of rest, but will hit up another yoga class! Just maybe not a hot one! :)
