Well, 13.79 is what Map My Run says I did. Not sure if I believe it's accuracy sometimes. I think it was more like 13.5, but close enough. Went with hubby again. Took us just over 2 hours. Pretty tired when I got back, but glad I did it. When I go with him and we go for longer than 10 miles, I have to run his style (well, okay, I don't HAVE to, but I want to run with him, so I do). Where I will just flat out run the 13 miles, hardly stopping, he prefers to walk every 2 miles for a minute. He swears it does him good. While I don't doubt him, I have a hard time doing that, especially the first 6 miles. I don't want to stop, I want to keep going!! But, I do need to take a leaf out of his book as I'm running the St George marathon later this year and I know my running style is going to have to change for that. I won't be able to race the half marathon distance, since I'll have to go twice that far. Foot still slightly sore, but fine while running. Thinking about getting a second pair of running shoes. I wore my new ones on the long run today (yes, they are FINALLY feeling broken in) but they were feeling a bit non-cushiony and my feet were feeling pretty pounded by the end. That never happened in my old shoes. Think I'll have to go online and find another pair.
