Mid-program drudgery
Today's run was so blah. Unbelievably blah. So blah that, under any other circumstances, I would be disappointed. But, based on the circumstances, I'll just let it slide.
4°C and rainy, one week after a 30km race, did 800m repeats on Friday... that all adds up to seriously blah conditions. I hammered out an unremarkable 10 miles and came home to recuperate. Opened up iCal and mapped out the weeks to come, all culminating in the day I get revenge on Ottawa... May 27th.
I'm slightly nervous about being overtrained right now. The weather forecast for this week doesnt look overly promising.. cold and rainy straight through.
4 day week at work coming up... gonna take advantage and get some extra sleeeeep. 20 miler next Sunday... sleep is my biggest ally right now.
Also - gonna start breaking in a new pair of Mizuno Creations. Right now they feel like plastic.. but the old ones feel like mush. I should just pay someone to walk around in these things all week. Any takers?
