Training Log 05/17/20

Took yesterday off to give my sore leg a break. I think it’s simple inflammation. Ibuprofen, tight wraps and ice help greatly. I have a few exercise ideas to work on as well.

I was planning on a rather flat 10.26 mile run today, but since I took yesterday off I decided to switch to a 10.6 mile rolling hills route. It was a good workout. I look forward to getting long runs back up into the high teens and 20’s though. There’s no substitute for distance, especially the mental training to be patient and to deal with the grind.

Weight: target: 148.14, actual: 151.6. Pace: target: 9:50, actual: 9:27. Weight is being stubborn. Fine — so am I.
