So I took a slight break from the training this week. I figured spring break meant a break from all the pounding as well, right? I did the Tuesday short run, but skipped Wednesday and Thursday's runs.
This morning I got back into the "swing" of things with the 16 mile run. It was long, long, and painful towards the end. It felt much better than last weekends long run, and I was able to go longer before having to start taking walking breaks, but I was still still/sore afterwords. So now its back to training as usually because the race is only a month away which is super scary. I'm just hoping to make it out alive and still being able to walk.

ReplyDeleteI hear you...The 16 mile run was intense. The first 12 were fine...the last 4 hurt really badly.
I'm really getting nervous about the race, and I am ready for it to be over.
I've been a little burnt out on running, and I know I need to incorporate some cross training. I really liked the yoga/pilates/whatever it was class on Friday morning at 6 a.m. I'm going to try to do it again this week!
KEEP IT UP ZEAK! You're on the right track!!
