AM: 8 miles. Good to be out (even though it was hot). My goal was to run at least 60 miles this week and next - before the fatigue sets in ... and then after that a simple goal of *at least* 4 miles/day (is that too much to ask?). However, I am already not sure if I will be able to do this. I am t.i.r.e.d. Like bone tired. As runners we know how to push through fatigue and pain, but I am not sure that this is the optimal strategy right now ... I am worn down. I am still going to try to make my goal, but I am modifying to run every day I would normally run, but not push through the fatigue. Bummer, but probably a better strategy. So ... I won't preblog miles for tonight, but I might try to run if I can.
PM: easy 4. I was able to run this evening -- I don't know why, but I am usually a little better in the PM (I think it is because I have a lawn chair in my office and can take a little nap - even though I don't feel like I am sleeping, a little rest seems to go a long way). one more day and the first week is done!! only 4 more + day to go! On a good note, John helped with my frozen shoulder yesterday -- it really hurts today, but I can move my neck again, so it is improving!! And, I can do some exercises now, so that it won't freeze up any more (radiation makes it worse for many people). I hope you all have a wonderful day!! sorry to be a bummer, I am sure I will be better after I watch some awesome NCAA track and field this weekend!!
