16 miles. First half easy, second half, 6:30, then 6:20s, low 6:00s, 5:50s, 5:40s, then I blew up and finished way behind my training buddies.  My legs haven't felt right for awhile.  Just damn tired and not recovering like they used to.  I think I'm on the verge of overtraining. Coach told me to can the workout Tuesday and focus on just running easy in order to recover.  I agree that this is a good move.  If I am overtraining I need to get rested quickly. Nothing I do two weeks out from Boston is going to improve my fitness.  I need to rest.

rode the bike inside and did core and strength work in the gym.  Knee and foot still a little sore at the joint.  Going to rest up and see how I feel.

Legs are still sore.  I'm afraid I am suffering from slight overtraining.  Hopefully it was just a bit of overreaching with too much heavy mileage and VO2M work in too short of a period with not enough recovery given my work schedule.  Since I'm in a taper week anyway I am just going to take a few days off and do easy running. Sad about this but I hope I can nip it in the bud before it becomes a problem.

1.5 mile WU then a local 5K...legs are slow for 5Ks  but I feel strong. Perfect for marathoning.

4 miles easy after.
