Light rain and cooler today (62) but a good day to run. I felt better today so maybe the rest and the cut back in miles is doing the trick. I mostly took it easy during the run but threw in 2 x 1/2 pickups just to see how I felt. They felt ok. I wouldn't say strong yet but ran them around 6:45 pace. I am thinking about taking a couple of rest days before the race on Sat. I normally only take one. I thought of two different approaches. 1) rest, easy day, rest or 2) easy day, rest, rest. Just thought the two rest days might help my body respond better from being tired. Anyone have any thoughts or experience with this?
