Six Mile Weekday Run!

Six mile morning run! It took me a good three miles to warm up. Well four really if you look at the mile splits. I struggled a little at the beginning, but put together some decent miles in the end. I can’t believe my weekday runs are back up to six miles, that feels like a huge accomplishment. 

My big win today was that my legs were tired before my lungs. That hasn’t happened in a while. I take that as I’m getting in better shape, but need to step up my recovery game. I told myself that when the mileage grew I would build in recovery time. Meaning I would add in foam rolling, stretching and maybe some ice baths. Sadly I have done none of that and my legs are screaming at me. I need to start now before an injury happens! 

I did order some inserts for my shoes to help a little with impact. We will see if I like them or not. I went with over the counter ones from Amazon geared towards runners. I have used them in the past and had good results. Excited to give those a try. 

We are traveling Thursday – Sunday. I’m going to do my best to stay as close to my training plan as possible. I wrote this week with travel in mind, so hopefully I can stick to it!
