My first real run since the marathon. It was burr chilly but felt good. Started out a little quicker than normal just because it was cold! Ran 8:08, 8:00, 7:30, 7:20. Total time was 31:15 (7:44 avg). When I finished I waded into our pool and did some calf dips to stretch my AT. What a great way to start back.

2nd day back running. I slept in and planned on running tonight. After dinner and time with the family I took off for a short, slow run. Did a 10 minute first mile. It's been a very long time since I've run that slow. I didn't care because I just wanted to be out running and want to make sure I'm not pushing too soon. So tonight I just took it easy and enjoyed the cool evening. I'm trying to remember that marathoning is all about patience and discipline. You need both to train properly, taper properly, run the race properly, and yes, even to recover properly. I'm working on it day by day. The goal this week is to run 4-5 days easy so I can run 5-6 days next week and be back training full time the the following week.

Had a great run this morning in almost perfect conditions. It felt like upper 40's and relatively dry. Ran with Raj from the Landsbrook Y as his last run before a half on Sunday. The entire run was at a comfortable pace in which we talked the entire time. No pick ups or hills today. Just steady, easy pace.
Today is the first run in over 6 weeks that my AT did not bother me!!! I'm so excited about this as it means I am actually getting progressively stronger and may be close to beating this whole tendonitus thing. One thing the higher milage revealed this last training cycle is that my weakness is in my lower calf muscles. I've got to be strategic in stretching and strengthening here so my gate will be stronger, more biomechanically stable, and less injury prone. NEXT I have to get back to doing some core work. Oh joy...

| First long run 2 weeks after marathon. Ran with Strider buddies: Keith, Jorge, Randy, Rudy, Diane, Kyle... Had a wonderful and relaxing run. The air was saturated and fog hung everywhere. It looked like we had been transported to the Smoky Mountains (minus the mountain part). I planned on doing 6-8 miles so getting 9 in easy, without pain or soreness, was a real treat. I'm thankful to be injury free! Time: 6:55 am Total Time: 1:15:48 (8:25 avg) Temp: 46 Humidity: 96% | |
