Felt great this morning. I thought I would run on Saturday, but didn't. I thought I would run on Monday, but didn't. If I miss it in the morning, there is a high probability that it won't get done. Anyway, this morning I did 10 right at my projected marathon pace, 8:54 average. I ran strong throughout and easily could ran 13 and beyond, unlike last Friday. I'm going run 10 more tomorrow then take Thursday off in preparation for Friday's run when I'll do 20. I'm going to focus on that 20 instead of the weekly total. Last week I wanted to do 50 miles and fell behind a little so I ran a slow 5 the day before I boinked. I usually take the day off before a long run so maybe that had a little to do with last Friday's collapse, but I don't think that alone would do it. |
