Wow! 12 miles – easily the furthest I have ever run in one go in my life! I was only aiming for around 9 miles but felt good so I kept on going! Had only 3 brief rests. Really struggling at around the 10 mile stage but managed to keep on going. It took me a total of 2 hrs 9 minutes, with an average heart rate of 178 bpm – excellent evidence of how hard I pushed myself today! Garmin watch informs me that I used up 1327 calories – felt like more!!!
I am sat here now with legs like jelly! My calves ache like they have NEVER ached before. I am tired and yet I feel great. What an achievement! Only a few months ago I was out of breath walking on the treadmill!
12 Mile Run in 2 hrs 9 mins - by far the furthest I have ever run in one go in my life!
Pace stats for my 12 mile run - I know it's not all that quick, but I don't care! I am just overwhelmed that I managed to run as far as this.
