30 minutes on stationary bike then
some hip exercises, stretches, and hot tub. To my relief it doesn't appear
that any major damage was done yesterday. My hamstrings are more sore
than anything else while my quads and calves feel surprisingly good. Chaffing is
inevitable but skin heals fast.
For fun I charted my average marathon
times (excluding some trail races) by year since my first in 2000. Then I plotted the polynomial trend line and excel
magically gave me the trend line equation.
According to the trend I should hit the OTQ sometime in 2014 and break
the WR in 2019. :) Unfortunately age and human
genetics are working against me so this line really needs to be logarithmic. For now I like the look of this line better.
y
= -6E-05x2 - 0.0004x + 0.116 x is the year and y predicts the time.
