Saturday 8/2

Today was my longest run yet at 16 miles. I did the 8 mile sunglass loop twice. For the first half, I felt fine as expected. After stopping for five minutes to get a drink, I headed out for the second loop. The first four miles were okay, but I really struggled through the last four (miles 12-16). I felt severely dehydrated, and my knees were bothering me.

Knee pain has been pretty consistent with my longer runs, which is some cause for concern for me. However, they haven't hurt enough for me to cut a run short, so I'm hoping it's nothing serious.
