I'm still in Arizona and I was feeling pretty good so I decided to go for a little shake out run just to see how my legs are recovering, I started out real easy and then as my legs got loosened up I just kinda of stayed with the pace that was comfortable. It was a beautiful morning for a run and I really enjoyed it... My calf was still a little stiff but not bad at all and by the end of the run I hardly noticed it, my quads were a little tight to begin with but by the end they were feeling pretty darn good too, so I have recovered way fast after this Marathon than I have the previous ones that I have ran. I think alot of that has to do with all the downhill training that I was able to do this time around so I think the goal is to get in some real good Payson canyon runs for each training cycle if its possible. My average pace was 9:06 with a total time of 21:14, just going to do some more RR down here in Queens Creek AZ with family and then we will be heading home on Sunday, its a nice place to recover after a marathon.
See ya later. |
