TNT Week 9

So, I know it's been a few days since the run I am posting about now, but better late than never!  lol...  On April 3rd we had to do our long run on our own because of the Easter holiday.  Luckily, it seemed like half the team showed up to run at Green Lakes, including my usual small group of misfit runners!

This long run was 14 miles, which was actually the longest distance yet for me!  I've never done anything over a half marathon before, so it was quite an accomplishment.  I decided, after talking to other runners and reading The Penguin's blog, that I was going to try a walk/run approach for the rest of the season.  20 minutes running, 2 minutes walking, and so on.  It worked well, but because I don't care much for trails, my last 3 miles were a little rough.  But, despite the unseasonably hot day, I feel like I did well and I feel very accomplished to have done more than a half marathon.

Half way there!!!
