No worries, though, because my training schedule recommended 15 miles.<\/p>\n<p>I ran 7:46s for 2:04:10.  It seems I&#8217;m close to my level of training last year, only it&#8217;s a bit hard to compare because I had generally faster times last year but also better temperatures.  Tonight&#8217;s 76 apparently had about 70% humidity but honestly it felt pretty cool the whole way.  It wasn&#8217;t one of those miserably humid days but quite nice.  Here are tonight&#8217;s deets:<br \/>\n<iframe width='465' height='548' frameborder='0' src='http:\/\/connect.garmin.com:80\/activity\/embed\/43574018'><\/iframe><br \/>\nMy body was fairly cooperative, only barely feeling a grabbing sensation in my left ankle.  But anywhere from 3 to 7 bugs entered my mouth during this run.  I was hocking up a storm, not always because of bugs but sometimes.  I stopped a few times for water and consumed on 1x caffeine PowerGel, which did seem to kick in.  My splits were a little up and down though I generally felt fast; it&#8217;s interesting when it&#8217;s dark that I feel faster than sometimes my Garmin reveals.<\/p>\n<p>At home, I took a weak ice bath (I made it wrong, adding the ice while the water was running&#8211;warming the ice&#8211;but also not having enough water to cover my full legs).  I also had one of my better protein smoothies, figuring out that I need to have the soft ingredients at the bottom of my amazing blender and the hard ingredients near the top.  Now I feel I&#8217;ve mastered it!  I also had some refreshing coconut water, and I&#8217;m continuing to crave it.<\/p>\n<p>As I&#8217;m typing this, I&#8217;m now eating Haagen-Dazs Cranberry Blueberry sorbet.  Pretty yummy.  I theoretically earned it; I burned over 2,200 calories in tonight&#8217;s run!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just shy of running 16 miles this evening in Central Park.
