Ok, so yesterday I got a work out in before going to "work" and then another one when I got home late last night (Jillian in the morning and Bob in the evening). I was sore during the morning jaunt, and even more so during the attempt last night. I am trying to shock my body back into the groove, and I am feeling it today. I don't think that it is going to take me as long to get back into the swing of things since my body has been through this how many times over the past few months, but one thing is for certain ... this is a trial run. My back made sure of that, but I'll be damned if I'm going to let one little incident like that keep me from doing the full. We have to find another run later this year on a relatively flat course to get the full in ... perhaps the Toronto one in October, Newport OR in June, Chicago, New Orleans, Odgen UT (all during the spring months)?
Tonight I'm going to try and get in at least 9 miles, as the weather is starting to warm up again and I need the miles to reacquaint myself with the pounding.
I'll post again when I get back from my outing, and this weekend should be interesting.
Hmmm, all of those sound like good locations. Something in the fall would be ideal for us I think. Weather's cooler, and gives us a good 6 months to train. Somewhere scenic would be nice. New Orleans is on my to-do list, and so is Chicago. Toronto can be combined with a visit home :)
ReplyDeleteI'll check out pricing and dates on the New Orleans, Chicago and Toronto ones and let you know, then we can go from there.
