Post Thanksgiving Long Run

ByTim Nolte
Running | Distance: 7.97 miles, Time: 1:30:05, Pace: 11:18 min/mile

So I didn’t manage to get my run in on Thanksgiving day, we had a very early morning and by the time the kids were in bed it was getting late and I just didn’t feel up to an hour long run that late at night. I still had to get up early enough this morning to get my long run in before things started for the day, but I did get out and get it done.

The biggest struggle on this run was the constant urge of needing to use the restroom, and now that it’s just about winter the porta-johns have all but been put away from some of my running routes. I managed the run well enough despite it.

Between sidewalks and paved trails, we are pretty blessed with the conditions we have to run in….

    ByTim Nolte
    The long training run for this day was just another 13 miles, which of course I made a half marathon by squeaking in the last 0.1 miles. On Saturdays that I don’t have early morning family commitments, or that I’m out of town, my goal is to get my miles in before the start of…
