Rock n' Roll Philadelphia Half Marathon Training- Weeks 5-6
Whoa! Time flies when you're running and having fun! I'm now officially 6 weeks out from the Rock n' Roll Philadelphia Half Marathon in September and I absolutely cannot wait! Not only do I get to run a great city with one of my favorite bands playing for us (Guster!), I get to do it with one of my best friends! Hooray for running friends! So how did the past 2 weeks go for me? Do you want the long answer or the short answer? The short answer is...sweaty! Though I chose to do most of my runs on the treadmill (something I never thought I'd say) because of the heat, I thought they all went pretty well and my foot felt good. My new pair of Oofos that I get to throw on after the runs didn't hurt anything either. Week 5: I'll keep it short: total miles- 16.5 miles with a long run on Sunday after work of 6 miles. Overall, a good week. I felt really good going in to my long run, and then decided to run outside after work and all hell broke loose. It was HOT eve...
