I went out early to see if I could get in a 4 mile recovery run. My legs are still tired from yesterday, and my calf and achilles are super tight, so I bailed after one mile. I'd rather rest and stretch and not risk injury at this point. Taper time!
Up and ready to try for 8 miles, the longest since I've been back from injury. I'm going out with my sons running group so hoping the company and fear f looking like a loser to a bunch of Tweens will keep me going!
I was in the pool at 5am. Because im nuts. Im doing my 13 miles in a couple of hours. The weather was great for swimming, its going to suck for running.
I'm up. Definitely not gearing up for anything. I only had 3 drinks last night, mixed in with a ton of water, & I have a damn headache. I'm waiting on coffee. I think DH & I are going to do 9 this evening.
Ugh. I'm up. I tried to reschedule 12 with my partner, but his wife is all lets so it today. It's 40, cloudy and windy. Tomorrow will be warmer and sunny. With no wind. I want to throw a fit but won't.

I ran 4 miles this morning. I felt like I was going to die - it was so humid! I need to run 12 tomorrow and it supposed to be 100% humidity. What doesn't kill me makes me stronger, i guess. I really hope it doesn't kill me.
I got to sleep until 7am! No running on the schedule for me today, but maybe a trip to urgent care for an ear infection. The whole right side of my head is throbbing Please tell me these things don't usually last a week.
Nothing for me this morning - went to a concert last night and drank all the drinks. Avett Brothers - they were so good!
Will do 6ish this afternoon. Did my long run for the week on Weds, and now I'm trying to decide if I run long again tmrw or shuffle it in to next week.

where do you live? I could barely run 4 this morning and it was 95% humidity, which I discovered once I got home soaking wet and checked the weather. AH! I've got 8-10 tomorrow and it's supposed to rain. 8 days until marathon and this weather is not cooperating!

I think CallingAllAngels and I live near each other. Definitely a BAD call to start my 20 at 8am, but loved the extra sleep..
Temps are already mid 80s here and the last 5 miles felt like a death march.
BUT - I had an awesome 20 two weeks ago, and PR'd my 30k last Saturday (both with ideal weather), so I think I am okay. BRING ON THE TAPER!!!! (hot)
