Long run this morning
Ran a little over 11 this morning, going from my house to downtown and back. Wanted to do the Acosta and Main Street bridges in the middle to simulate the fatigue I will be feeling Saturday morning in the River Run when I get to the Hart Bridge. Did the bridges with some intensity. Overall, the run felt sluggish. I think the Chinese dinner feast I had last night was not the best fuel for a long run. General Tso must not have fed his men chicken the night before a long march. The good news is the heart rate was down (156 bpm average) and the pace wasn’t terrible (~7:44/mile). The legs did feel dead. I might need to do low intensity stuff the rest of the week and take Friday off.
