AM - Long Run w/ 15 k "race" in the middle.  Ran slow 14 miles prior to 15k AT effort, and then ran home roughly 11 miles.  10 minute miles most of the way.  6:30-7 min. for 15k.  Feeling pretty rough all morning.  Ate 2 clif bars, a turkey sandwich after the race, and some nature valley honey granola bars on the way home.  water / light gatorade mix consumed as well.  System was not liking much of anything after the 15k effort - pretty miserable.
