About 17 this morning. I think. Not sure. Tom was supposed to send me a route this week, and didn't. I tried to tweak one I found on the LRRC website, and I thought I'd added at least a couple of miles to what was listed as a 16-mile route. But I measured it in the car after I finished and got 16.8 or some such. Not sure I got all the twists and turns right, though, so I'm rounding off to 17. It was a better run than last weekend; cut way back on the breaks and didn't feel like I needed an IV when I finished (a breeze and 10 degrees cooler helped). Don't really mind that I may not have done 20; I think I need a bit of a break anyway. So I'll taper this week for the 20K on Saturday, and try to get this left soleus thing under control. I don't think it really bothered me much today, but not sure what it will do Saturday when I'm actually trying to race. So taper and stretch and ibu and ice and maybe some ultrasound, and we'll see if it's better in six days. Fortunately, yesterday's sunburn didn't bother me either, thanks to a good bit of cloud cover. |
