It was a beautiful morning for a run, nice and cool just right! I ran out to Payson via canal road, I tried to keep the pace up beat and everything felt pretty good for a Monday... My average pace was 8:38 with my HR average at 139, I had one marathon pace mile in the middle of the run (7:50), my total time was 1:01:56. I feel pretty good and I am going to slowly taper for SG, but I think it will be less than normal as I feel that with my injury keeping me out of the game for most of June that I need the mileage, I will taper my long runs though. My plan is to do 15 this Saturday and then 10 to 12 the following week and then taper the week of the marathon, but again that all depends on how I am feeling and if my body is recovering the way that I need it to. I finished up this morning with my upper body weight training and then some push-ups. See ya tomorrow.
