This IS supposed to be my easy week, so I am taking some very easy days / rest days, but I'm still trying to get in my key workouts.
My long run yesterday was way harder than I expected - 17.5 miles where I was only planning on 15 -miscalculated - heat must've gotten to my brain. I ran out of water for a 3 mile segment (miles 9-11), on a very hot and humid morning. I barely made the last mile up Hillsdale. I'm glad I have 5 more long runs to get ready for Kona, because I'm not even close right now. Hopefully my knees, foot and hamstring hold out!
Speaking of which... my knees weren't feeling so great after the run, my foot was really aching this morning, and my hamstring continues to hurt. So, today I will swim, but no biking or running for the next 2 days. Hopefully I recover enough to do the century on Saturday (Dog Daze). My backup plan is to drive to Sommers point NJ and do some open water swimming - I may do that anyway on Sunday.
Tonight I'll work on my bike - really needs a good cleaning and a bunch of other minor adjustments.
