I can't feel my legs!

Hey girls! Here's the recap of my eighteen miler today. It was hot, I ran at eight last night and ate dinner at five- needless to say I was thirsty and hungry the whole way. After about 14 1/2 I had to walk run the last 3 1/2 miles. At 12 I stopped at the house and drank some water and changed my soaking wet shirt. When I was finished my second shirt was just as drenched. From the first step out the door I didn't feel it. I even put the wrong playlist on by mistake. At 15 I told myself I was going to finish even if I had to crawl the last 3. I'm freakin'tight- not hurt at all, not even my knees, just stiff all over. I can't wait to try again next week, I know if I plan it right and have carbs for dinner instead of all protein I'll do much better and finish a lot stronger. My mom always used to say that sometimes a hard earned C means more to you than an easy A- I think my hard fought battle with eighteen today means more to me than if I had easily worked through it. Here's to earning it every step of the way! Lindsey
