Thoughts:

  • This was a difficult run. My entire body felt weighted down with each running stride. My pacing was difficult to maintain. It was evident today that my consistent spinning failed to keep my fitness level at peak performance.
  • I experienced little extensor tendonitis strain. My heel pain was noticeable, but not alarming.
  • I am scheduled to run my first half marathon on Sunday, She Power Half. I am conflicted. I switched my bib to the virtual race last week, but I'd really like to participate in the event. I know that my foot could not tolerate an entire run of that length. I could walk it with relative ease. I might be able to walk/run it, but I'll admit I might risk further injury.

​Cross Training:

  • 50 minutes spinning
  • 30 minutes weight training
