I couldn't figure out why my legs where so dead this morning,I really had a hard time getting them going, and to be truthful I never really did. But then I remembered that Saturday afternoon I was fishing up at scofield lake and my battery went out on my pontoon boat that operates my little electric motor, all I had was my fins on my feet no oars. I had to paddle for almost two hours before I was finally able to get back to shore, combine that with a 16 mile long run and you have a recipe for disaster and it showed this morning. I did my standard recovery run with a couple of strides in there to break up the boredom, I am saving my tempo workout for Wednesday as I am running in the Freedom Festival 10K with my brother Curtis, that should be a blast... I hope my legs are feeling better by then, but we shall see. Average pace today was 8:59 with my average heart rate at 133, total time was 1:03:08, I also did my strength training for my upper body for 25 minutes and some core training. I think it is time to get a new battery charger for my pontoon battery just to make sure it is getting a full charge so that doesn't happen to me again, it was brutal trying to get in.
