Run long 2:22:57 [1] 17.3 mi (8:16 / mi) +95m 8:07 / mi
Not a great weekend for training. Saturday was warm and busy, and seders both nights, and family stuff on Sunday morning … finally got out for the long run later in the afternoon. It was cooler by the water so I figured I'd run towards Pleasure Bay.
The first half of the run was fine. 8s or so through the City, out by Black Falcon, then across to Pleasure Bay. Lots of airplanes, at first coming in on the 4s as I started around the bay. I used the restroom there and started running around the bay. It was cooler and quite windy, and now planes were taking off on 22. Hmm, wind shift? I ran around once and decided to go for another. Miles in to the wind around 7:45, with the wind 7:15, so not too bad. But with the wind shift it got warmer, I was drinking a lot of water but now started to bonk and headed for home.
The rest of the run was bonking on the struggle bus, but I made it home, via Southie and some other roads I usually don't run.
