As usual my intentions and what happened - two totally different things. I intended to wake up early and go running down to Battery City Park and back and then finish with FITNESS 4 miler race. What I did was hit the snooze button...a couple of times... watched a little TV and then went to the 4 miler (where you could have won something from Birkenstock...if the line wasn't prohibitively long). After I crossed the finish line, I ran for another 12 miles. I ran around the park. I did a loop 3 times and stopped at cafe near the start of the race.
I didn't vary it, although I thought about it. Instead, I chose the consistency of the route. It was fun though, on each lap I saw something news. Towards the end, there was some sort of German Day festival going on. A lot of people in lederhosen, it was kind of scary. I thought I should be in a Grimm's fairy tale.
I got back home around 1:30 and found out I chaffed in places I don't normally. It's not a good thing. Finally went out to get something to eat around 3. Luke's Lobster and Little Red Rooster bakery. Good post long run meal.
But I am so tired. My legs hurt and I can't seem to drum up any energy to do anything. Sleep time.
