Guilford after half-day of work. Felt fine.

8-21-10
Strength training at NHHR

8-22-10
18 miles (2hrs 52mins)
Guilford to New Haven. First six were tough, but felt good otherwise. Legs never really fatigued, despite no GU. First time ever finishing an 18-mile training run out of three attempts. Got caught in a torrential downpour in East Haven. No lightening, though. It looked like it for a while. Cooler temperatures make a big difference. It took only 1 Nalgene before I had to pee again, not 7.

Miles: 39
Time: 6hrs
