Luke - 13.6

13.6mi, 1:53:00 (8:18)
After last night's festivities, today was rough. Woke up at 2pm feeling just awful, and could barely move for the next two hours. Luckily Zack was running the butte with me today, so I had a bit more motivation to get out the door. We started out real slow, as I was feeling terrible and Zack wasn't exactly at 100% either. As I was telling Zack, the best thing for a hangover is a long run (although the worst thing for a long run is a hangover). I made sure to push it up Fox Hollow because I knew if I didn't I'd end up trudging the whole way up, which would be so much worse. We went fairly slowly the first half, but pretty steadily until the very top which is always so tough. We relaxed at the top for longer than usual, and sat in the shade to eat our gels. I felt a ton better on the way down, just an absolute 180 from how I felt when we left. The flat portion at the end was a breeze, although Zack was dying a bit in the last mile or two.
Five (5) pull-ups. Splits: 12:54, 15:26, 9:02, 7:39, 8:35, 4:01, 3:35 (61:15) / 3:51, 2:32, 6:08, 6:05, 7:24, 14:00, 11:42.
