CAVES ARE SCARY.
--------------------- ----------------------- -----------------
Sorry I missed a post, Daniel and I had to entertain a recruit, plus with the massive amounts of snow it was extra difficult to get back to my dorm, as i slept at good ole Daniel's room, as John was MIA.
Saturday: It was snowing cats and dogs, out there. I think we got about 8 inches, so me being a little girl and all, i decided to go to the rec with Zach Gates. I ran 4 miles at a leisurely pace, sinc eit was my easy day. My it band was really not feeling good, probably due to neglecting the powers of ice the night before. So overall it was a terrible ordeal, but I got in a great stretch and head over to the Gates house and ice cupped my it band.
Sunday: Possibly the toughest and gruesome run i have been through. Words cannot describe the amount of discomfort and the miserableness that I was going through in my 18.5 mile run. It started off with my calves just really tight and felt that i had a vice on them, not allowing any tension to reside from my shin/calf area. Finally my muscles tightness reseeded allowing my stride to open up. But by that point my body was already exhausted, my legs were heavy and sore, my hip flexors, burned as each time my foot placed against the unstable slush allowing them to never be completely stable. By the end of the run our group was really feeling it, looking back it was quite humorous we hit a hill and everyone just seem to drop off haha. I have never felt so happy when i ended my run, just sitting in exhaustion in the locker room in a more fetal position than anything. Afterwards it was even a struggle to walk, all of us could read each others mind, about how happy we were that we were finally done haha.
Week Mileage: 85.7 miles
