Ok where can I start,,,, you got me I did not run 3 hours I only ran
14.8 miles in 159 minutes ( 2.5 hours) HR=156
0-3.7 miles
I started at 800am and the run was great. I had my water bottle with me
and ate 1/4 of a egg mcmuffin and cheese. The hills went by rather fast
I knew I could be going a little quick but I also knew I would be there
a long time. I ran up hills as well as ran down hill I did the first
loop in 40 minutes. My legs and my guts were ok.
3.7-7.4 miles(2nd time around)
I did the first loop with no problem.I did drink some water but not a
lot. I got back to my car and drank 10 oz of gatorade / grabbed 1/3 of a
power bar / filled my bottle with water / took a succed pill and I was
off. The first hill I walked as I ate my power bar. My mouth was DRY
that was not a good sign. I manadge to gobble it with my water. I ran
down the hill. Then it was walk up and run down untill mile 7.4.
7.4-14.8( 3rd and 4th)
I was down to a 1/4 of my water when I finished the loop. I did the
same 10 oz of gator ade / 1/3 power bar / got more water / this time I
took a suceed pill cuz I would hit my 2 hour mark in mid loop. The temp
was rizing and my legs were hurty but not bad.The up hills were a little
pushy but the downs hills my hammies were getting toughy. I was drinking
like a fish. I finished my bar / took my pill / and ran out of water at
bryant road. It was getting harder and harder to drag myself up hill as
I was trying to keep a pace on the down side. The last leg of Hooters
hills is flat so I decided this would be my last push. My heart rate
reach 175 and I hoofed it in. 14.8 miles @ 2.5 hours @ 156HR
