57min 5.75mi
The plan was 2 miles in the moonlight, but every corner I was telling my self to add another lap. I was fully planning on the 6th lap too, I really wanted to get a glimps of what the current "wall" looked and felt like. Had the right thigh pain after 1 mile, but it was deeper and kinda went away as the laps added up. The right calf had a few words around mile 3, but then he was silent. Got a glance from the side cramps at mile 4, but even she seemed to have no real complaints. Probably right at mile 5 the left calf (my oldest nemises) really started to whine. So that's the wall I guess - more a fear of getting injured than any real "stop now" kinda thing. I came very close to pushing it when "Down on the Corner" by Creedence came up on the iPod - but I didn't want to get hurt. If anyone reading this thinks that a calf muslce pain like that is something you should run through I'd like to know - as the rest of me had a few more laps.
