The main thing I have to point out is that last week Friday the 14th, I did my longest run ever. I did 14 miles in about 2.5 hours. My last personal best distance wise was a 13 miler about 8, 9 years ago (and about 25 lbs ago).
The Negatives: After doing the 14 my knees were sore, my feet were sore and I felt super nauseous. I could not even imagine running another 12 + miles.
The Positives: After drinking a sugary soda (thanks Jonny for that God awful Liquid Skittles flavored Mountain Dew - BLAHCH!), some water, a banana, and a few saltines I felt ok. Not great but ok.
I then ate (like a horse), and then I walked the dog for a few blocks. So all in all my recovery was pretty quick.
The following day I didn't do anything excercizey (?). Walked the dog a few times covering several blocks, sore but not too bad.
The day after that I was sore but pretty much back to the same routine as planned. So I guess where I stand right now is "frightenedly optimistic".
