Well, I suspected that a few days off really wouldn’t help the left shin much and I was right. It’s not bad, but it’s there. Time for a different approach.
Also time to start pushing the pace and getting that mindset in place. I’ve noticed that I pay too much respect to the longer distances. “I better take it easy — it’s a longer run today.” Enough of that nonsense. Let’s see what happens if I don’t take it easy. They are races, after all.
Today’s run was a 14.74 mile rolling hills route. Pace was 9:23. Weight was 152.2.
