Summer Exercise Series: The Last Summer Weekend Workout

To celebrate the last summer weekend of 2016, I decided to go the distance!!
Sat: 10K pace & 3K recovery
Sun: Half marathon run (one long way, new scene and nice view!)

I had to make some stops and walking breaks as I'm still relatively new to 13m distance, even though I went 60 secs slower per mile. 

My last 3 miles was full of calf cramps but I'm glad that I could finish it!
The soreness wasn't as bad as I thought. Maybe the intense stretching and foam rolling were the reasons.  I also focused on rolling my old injury and it did not act up at all the next day.  The only pain was my stiff neck + headache.  It could be due to the fact that I start carrying a drinking water bottle and my shoulder was too tensed up while holding it. Maybe it's time for a running belt?
