Another double day for me. Four easy this morning, although the jerk on the elliptical next to me was not making it any easier, then 15 tonight. Probably the 15 will be on the dreadmill as well. Oh well. Get through it and get to the taper in three days. Only 23 days to Newport!
Note to self after PM run: Do not do a hard VO2 max run and a medium-long run on consecutive days -- especially if you're also doing doubles on those days. The legs could hardly have been any more dead if I'd had them amputated. No life whatsoever. I had to really struggle to finish 13, and another 20 minutes of torture to get those last two miles didn't seem worth it, especially with a 22-miler in, oh, about 36 hours. So I shut it down and went in search of glycogen replenishment. |
