Worked shoulders and chest for 25-30 minutes.
9 miles easy @8:22 overall AP. I am so glad I have friends that are keeping tabs on me and encouraged me to skip my hard workout and take it easy today. If it were up to me I would have still done the hard workout because I am stubborn and sometimes think I am invincible but my body was screaming for an easy day. This run was much needed mentally as much as physically. The inside of my right foot is still bothering me a bit. It almost just feels bruised or swollen but there is no physical evident of either. After a few miles it seemed to ease.
I definitely think my body was more fatigued from the race than I gave it credit for. When I think I have a bad race I push too hard afterwards which is just plain stupid and isn't fixing anything. Learning....I am learning, slowly but surely. :) |
