I shouldn't do these things. But I always have a little tiny bit of racing left.
Now, back to my scheduled recovery...Iron Strength workout today! I'm all strength-building for the next few weeks!

Recovery for fools
It happens after every race: the weekend after, I'm itching to run long and a little too fast. Yesterday was 10 at 7:32 pace. It was 8 at something like 7:25 pace before it got insanely hot out (80F with 79% humidity: will summer never end?!) and suddenly last week's marathon hit me like a load of bricks.

ReplyDeleteYup, I've followed that exact plan many times ... and regretted it later.
