This morning I got up feeling fine to get my 16 miler done. At 1.5 miles I turned around, not even sure I could make it back. Felt sick, shaky, vision funny, like a blood sugar crash. But I had fueled as I normally do, so I dont know what happened. Made it home after 3.02 turtle miles. Tried it again tonight, after convincing to hubby to mosey along with me on a cruiser bike. After changing our route we ended up going 17.05 miles. I dont think I couldve done it had I been alone. From a cardiovascular standpoint, it was a cakewalk as I went 45 seconds to one minute slower than usual easy pace average, so the heart and lungs were hardly working. The legs however....well, theyre about to get their first ever ice bath. I thought they were going to fail me. I dont know what to think, except maybe the bunches of hills I ran while on vacay had a more profound effect on my legs than I thought. And I put them through 20.07 bloody miles today. Always an adventure.
