Legs felt surprising good today after Saturday's long run. The trend seems to be that the first day back from a big one goes fine, the second is worse and the third worse yet before I start to feel better. I guess we'll see. This week tapering just a bit in preparation for the Buffalo 50 coming up a week from Saturday. I don't want to underestimate the 50 even though I have no regrets not doing the 100 this year--just can't do the laps. (At least not this year.) I've made the mistake in the past of thinking "its just 50" and then getting hammered by the distance. 50 is still a dang long way, its finding the right, and quicker, pace at that distance in compared to the hundred. Hoping for a good day. |
