Soreness is a permanent state

Today
7 hill repeats and a bit of flatness.
I was really sore to start out today and wasn't feeling quite right the whole run, so took it pretty easy. I iced and stretched a lot tonight, so i can actually go up my stairs now! Yay.

Sunday:
Distance: 25.5km Granville island to UBC out and back
Time: between 2 and 2.5 hours

I definitely had my first experience with hitting the wall on Sunday. Once i hit the 21km mark it was a battle to keep running the rest of the way back. Luckily my running partner kept me going! I also tried my first gel today, and to put it nicely, i was not impressed. I was expecting it to be bad, but i was shocked at just how bad it truly was. ew nasty. Luckily i had a lot of water with me to wash it down. I bought about one of every flavor I can find, so i am hoping i will be able to find something a bit more tasty... i aim to be disappointed though.
