18 miles turned into something different

Set out this morning to run 18 miles - with a 10k race mixed into that. We met at Weaver Park, ran a mile to downtown (the start of the race) and then proceeded to run the Shamrock Run - 10k race. The race was a little over 3 miles up a steep road, and then downhill. It wasn't fun for me. I really took my time - I had 10 miles to run after this!

After the race, we ran back to Weaver Park, and then started on our remaining 10. It didn't work so well. The wind was terrible, it was freezing (we even ran in some flurries), and people were starting to get hurt. We decided to go ahead and call it a day, and meet back at the park on Sunday morning. I ran 2 more miles so another girl could finish her entire workout (she's training for the half, and only had to run 10 miles today). I was a little sore when we finished, but nothing I can't get over.

10 more tomorrow.
