Got my 20miler in today. 2:55. So-so. But I was nursing my achillies and had not gone long in a while.
I went back to my eating plan for day before and I think it helped. No issues during the run down below.
I also ran in tights. That went well.
Also tried my fuel belt single bottle clip on to carry pickle juice. That worked as well.
No music. Like that as well. Keeps me calmer.
I ran 2 laps of 5mi out, 5mi back. That meant that I did not get to drink hardly at all. I guess I wanted to see if it would effect me. It did. Missed the cal as well. Had a gel every 30min but that was not quite enough.
I turned up the pace every 5mi except for the last 5 as my hr was too high in part due to lack of fluids.
My legs started to feel heavy at about mile 17.
I had very little pain from my achillies which really surprised me after how much it hurt on Thursday.
On the whole, I feel much more confident after this run then I did before it.
