Long run today of 2 hours according to my training plan. Training for the Historic Half Marathon (part one of the Semper Fi challenge).
But with the Covid-19 lockdowns and travel restrictions, the race was canceled. They did give options to defer or to complete as a virtual race. I will complete virtual so I can stay in the Semper Fi challenge.
Did my long run indoors on the treadmill today for several reasons. Rainy weather and I needed to wear a new pair/new model year of shoes. I did not want to run in the rain. And I did not want to be far from home in case of an issue with the shoes. Shoes seem to be okay. I ordered a third pair for my rotation. Will save the bright pink ones until closer to the marathon.
So a personal record on the treadmill. Two hours running and walking. Not as far as I would have liked to go, but the time on my feet is what is important to training.
So many races have been canceled or postponed this spring. Fall is going to be crazy for some people. I have deferred until next year two races. Will complete the half virtually and another "Staycation" race virtually (10k).
