After doing some recovery Thursday and Friday, I headed out early this morning (well not too early) for a double lap around Harveys Lake. I wasn’t thrilled with my time, although I was taking it kind of easy. I did it in 2:27, which is a little slower than 9 min mile, and i guess thats okay, because actually when I calculated it, I figured it at 16 miles, not 16.2 (which it actually is). So its not that bad.
My back has been a struggle, although i’m not feeling any pain of any sort, just a lot of soreness in all regions, so i’m back to the ice and heat in alternation. It seems to help. I’m also knocked up on ibuprofen .. my goal is to get through an 8 miler tomorrow without any issue and then decide how I’m going to approach the upcoming week. I have the Bernie’s Memorial run on Wednesday (4th of July) which is only 3 miles, so it breaks up my week, but I don’t know how to adjust.
Oh well, not much more to post about right now, just thought I’d check in on this last day of June.
