A version of the truth
ORN: This morning, I woke before the sun and ran 20.2 miles in 3:38'12". It was surprisingly not horrible. Sure, my feet felt like they were getting hit by baseball bats in the second half, but it was an amazing morning. Running through town allowed me to see different parts of the city wake up. My course took me from the park through a ritzy-titzy part of town to a gallery/hipster part [Frankfort Avenue]. Then I ran through Irish Hill and ended up on a bike trail that runs parallel to and sandwiched between I-64 and Lexington Road. I knew this place was there, but I never knew how nice it was. There was a little canal on one side and cute little bridges to cross over. Then it was into Cherokee Park for my weekly ordeal of hills. It didn't suck. And now it's over, and I am headed into my first taper week. Thank the egg-laying bunny.

Whoa, that is a Long run and sounds like a great run. Getting up before the sun is difficult, but once outside and running, I always wonder why I don't do this more often (more often than once or twice a year).
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a great run!
Um. That picture just freaks mea out.
ReplyDeleteMan, congrats on the 20 mile run. Right now that seems so far away for me. Good luck on your 1st Marathon. It sounds like you have put in the work!!!
ReplyDeleteI freaking love the bike path. And I love how much of the city you can see when running that far. It makes me remember how much I love this place.
