New Trainer

So this is for Sunday:

Had our long run and what a terrible run it was. Gibby allowed us to sleep in for a bit longer than usual. So i woke up pretty refreshed and ready to go. For some reason i was lagging around the locker room not really getting ready,e ven though i had arrived there 20 minutes early. This proved to be a terrible mistake. We departed for York River State Park, where we normally do our long runs. I rode with Ben, Jon G., Blitzer, and John M. As i got there and starting taking off my warmups, i realized that i had forgotten my running shoes and only had my nike air stabs! I immediately began yelling profane words, because the park was way to far away from campus to legitimately think anybody would drive back. Patterson noticed first and thoguht i shouldnt run, but gibby thought it would be alright, as long as i stayed on soft surfaces, to run in my worn out, beat up stabs.

This happned to be one of the most painful experiences. My shins were dying for the first 20 minutes of the run and i was getting a little woriried, but aht eventually smoothed out. I began constantly tripping and nearly collapsing on the trails, as i was not use to the extra wegiht that was burdoning my legs. After John M. and left the group we were running with, everything began falling apart. My feet were aching and felt that i had a 1,000 blisters making the last 20 minutes of my run a living hell. I began crawling and just praying for it to be over. Eventually i got through it. This possibly was the worst 16 miles i have ever run.

Total miles this week- 80 in 6 days
