Not a good day. I do not know what I was thinking but I thought I could meet at 5:15 and still get all my miles in - NOPE! We warmed up and my legs are still very fatigued and I am getting frustrated. We did a 2 mile tempo and then went to do Yasso 800's. I did the first in 3:45 - to slow and the second in 3:43 - still to slow. I had some tugging in my right knee so I left the track and went and ran 2 more miles on my own. I am taking tomorrow off because I am traveling and going to sleep in until 5 am. I am hoping that a day of rest will be what my legs need and I can get it back together for Thursday. At this point I am not even sure what to expect for SGM. I am not training the way I should and my legs are not recovering at all so I am trying to have a good attitude but if this continues it could be ugly. I am not sure if I continue to push through and hope the taper is enough or do I try to rest this week and push the next two.......... Ave Pace 8:58 Happy Running!
