Beautiful day today, too bad I had to run on the TM. I was home with my two youngest while my wife took my daugther to dance so it was TM or nothing. I got in 7 miles and my muscles got a little tight. I'm still a little sore from last Saturday's race. I felt great Sunday, but the r-calf and l-hamstring are a little wounded. I am struggling a bit with allergies today as well, my breathing was labored more then usual but oh well. I'm taking this week a little easier then last. I am going for a 22 miler on Saturday so I want to get rested up. It will only be my third 20+ mile run. I'm excited but a little nervous. I have only 8 weeks left until Utah Valley Marathon. I am hopefull that I will be smart and be able to train injury free. I have a tendency to always push myself harder then I should and I tend to over do it. I need to stay smart and listen to those who have done this before. Thanks to all you bloggers whom I have read your stories and learned from. |
