Taper: Week 2

5km – 23:57
Race Prep run. It was nice enough out to run in my gear I’m wearing in Florida. Everything is feeling good. My hip/groin is feeling better and should hold up for the run! It’s all coming together! Now I’m going to rest up and finalize my race strategy.

Week Thirteen: Run 2

8km – 45min
Interval treadmill run!

Week Thirteen: Run 1

3km
Slow start this week. I was fighting a bug yesterday that was likely brought on from exhaustion. Running 18k then working two nights and barely sleeping in between them was not a wise choice. Back on my feet just in time to run into a small blister and had to abort my run. I’m done with trying to break in my orthotics until after my run. Tomorrow’s another day!

Back in the saddle! New pair of Orthotics and 4 fewer teeth. Ready to finish my program strong.

Week Eleven: Rest

This week is being dedicated to rest. Just had four wisdom teeth pulled. Ouch…
