I had never run more than 13.1 miles until today. Training program called for a 3 hour run. I didn’t make it 3 hours and really didn’t have any intention of running that long. I don’t have a fuel belt so I had to run out and back on 1 Gel. I ran out 1 hour and back so that I could stop at the car and get something to drink and another Gel. Having 14 miles done I went back out and ran to the other side of the Dam and back for 19.5 total.
The weather for the run was kind of lousy, started out very warm and humid and then at about mile 6 turned into a thunderstorm and just a down pour for the next 6 miles. After that it was just a steady rain. Glad it is over. Maybe it will be severe thunderstorms on race day, I’ll be ready!
