Tough one

I got through today's 16 miler mainly by force of will. I felt fine heading out, the rain had stopped and I definitely got caught up on my sleep. But by the 10th mile I started to fade, not enough to eat before I left, so I really just had to force myself to keep going. Finished @ 2:06, then proceeded to eat every available source of calories in the house. Feeling fine now, I would have thought a waffle was enough to last for a two hour run, but I guess after how my stomach has been this week it wasn't. This is the type of run that helps develop the mental toughness that you need to hang on during the closing miles of a race.
Total for the week: 66
for the year: 2319
