Another week of marathon training is now behind me. And I have to say the warm weather and humidity that we've been experiencing has been quite the challenge. So, this morning for my weekly long run, I had to resort to 'Plan B' and ran inside at the fitness center, logging 8 miles. My original plan was to tackle 10 miles outside but it was already 74 degrees at 7am this morning and the air was thick with fog and humidity – not my idea of ideal conditions for running a LONG RUN. Nonetheless, I felt really strong throughout the run and I probably have gone longer but I mistakenly thought my target time was 75 minutes rather than 105 minutes. I knew I should have double-checked my schedule before I left the house but I wasn't as organized as I should have been. Another lesson learned – Have a solid plan the night before and commit to it!
Tomorrow will be a rest day but I am planning to do some strength training at the fitness center. Other than that, I hope to have a relaxing and restful Sunday!
Safe and Happy Running!
John
