Today the alarm woke me as early as a work day. 415 AM so I could be ready to run at 5. Today was my hilly asphalt route. Goal: 5 hours. Goal achieved!
I wasn't so sure I was going to be able to hang in for 5 hours. My shin was still feeling a bit tired, not painful at all, just there..you know? After 3.5 hours I took 2 Advil. I haven't taken Advil during a run in a very very long time. That took away all feeling of my shin and then I knew I would have no problem.
I did walk a few of the hills this session and I even took a few walk breaks on the flats.
Total: 5:11 = 30.6 miles. I had to drive the route afterward as I wasn't sure on the mileage. I had guestimated 30 miles. Not bad!
Showered and ready for the day before the whole family was awake. Time to fix pancakes and sausage for Steve and the boys before I went shopping for a new bed.
We now own a King Select Comfort Sleep Number Bed. I can't wait for delivery and set up :)
Tomorrow: Recovery easy peasy trail run with Topaz.

About Me
- Julie B
- 12 years ago in the haze of a hangover I read Oprah's Make The Connection. It changed my life. I lost the fat, I put down the booze, began eating in a healthy manner, began to walk, then run. Run On! I first began running marathons. Liked it so much I found some crazy ultra runners in MN who showed me the trail and ultramarathons. 39 marathons and 40+ ultra marathons later ( 15 100 mile ultramarathons in the past 5 years) I am sober, lean and happy. I am now inspiring others to run, as Oprah inspired me. Coaching beginning runners is a gift I like to give every day. It's not just about running..it's about all that comes with it: goal setting, empowerment, a belief in oneself, being true to oneself. 2007 brought 4 100 mile finishes, 2008 brought 4 100 mile finishes, a BQ and PR at TCM, a PR at the 100 mile trail distace at Javelina Jundred: 23:13. 2009 brought another PR at the 100 mile distance! Amazing. Lean Horse 100, a dream come true. What holds for 2010? WHO KNOWS?? NOT I!

Your running always leaves me speechless.
I have the King size Select Comfort Sleep number bed. It was the first piece of "real furniture" I got when hubby & I bought our house. Best purchase EVER. Hope you love yours.
you ran 30 miles before your family was even up for the day?
girl you deserve those bad carbs! there has got to be a way to eat them without the fat :(
