It felt good to get this morning and run. I needed to get the BAD run on friday out of my memory. I ran an easy 6 miles out to the dixie center and back. I just let my legs run a comfortable pace on this run. I feel that I could easily have moved my pace down :30 or so and still felt good. That is right where I want it to be. I need to get an 8:03 for my BQ of 3:30:59. The body continues to feel stronger.
I noticed that on my run on friday that I had some Nikken mag step insoles in my shoes. They are heavy! This is what really complicated things plus the heat of the day (95). I also checked my shoes to make sure that everything is good with them before the race. I have been having problems with the balls of me feet hurting the past week or so. I have been using a very light weight insloe and it was totally crushed from the summer worth of training. Ran with new ones this morning....much, much better.
Will be resting until Wednesday..... |
