Broke the double digit barrier today with a 10 mile run. The run felt great, but I felt awful about 30-45 minutes after the run. I think I need to start fueling on my long runs. I was feeling light headed and nauseated after my run until I ate something. Then I felt fine again.
My long runs have been feeling great, after about 5-6 miles, it feels like I’m on autopilot.
My legs feel good, I run slow enough to keep my heart rate down and I finish my runs feeling good except for the light headed thing but I think that’s just because I’m low on blood sugar.
New milestone, double digit run.

Congrats, man. Sounds like you’re making great progress. I had a physical last week and I was telling the doctor about my recurring knee problem with longer runs, and he said it’s not the knee itself, but more likely the ITB. Now I’m hopeful about getting back to running again, and being more careful about stretching the ITB and ramping up my miles slower…
