Had a slack week, so decided to do my long run today instead. Went late in the afternoon in Central Park and glory be, I ate quite a few bugs. Have no idea what they were or why they decided to fly into my gaping maw. Anyway, this was my longest run yet - did 2 four loops and threw in a lap of the reservoir in the middle. I road tested GU to see if I had more energy toward the end.
In the last mile I felt pretty good. Was actually running as opposed to the shuffle I tend to do on a long run. Figured since there was juice in the legs, I should use it, so I picked up the pace. Was good.
I guess I'll never know if the energy was because of the GU or the tasty, nutritious bugs I ate. :)
