Coming off a day when I have run farther than I think I have ever run, I decided to take it easy. A decent pace and good distance earned me a day off - well at least a day where the most running was taking the dog for a spin or two around the block. Besides my joints were stiff and Achilles tendon was as taut as a guitar string. The run was Saturday and here I am Monday and I am left feeling like a slacker. Is this what running does to you? Makes you feel miserable when you don't run. It does feel good after I run, I guess I have to just keep running.
Well, tomorrow I am going to get back too it. What "it" is shall be determined tomorrow. I was informed today that the treadmills at my complex are not working. This leaves ellipticle and stationary bike. I have to get some solid cardio in tomorrow. My heart needs to feel like I am out to get it. The last two workout prior to the long run were ellipticle. The options are somewhat limited and sometimes you take what you can get. As long as I am on a workout machine where my legs are moving for more than an hour. That's right an hour. What up nay-sayers. Who is saying "nay" now? Probably horses, but that is besides the point.
Ok, so if you can't tell by that little tangent I am a little on the tired side of life. That is part of the reason why I did not workout tonight. I figured a night of solid rest would be miles better for me. I hope I figured right because the clock is ticking and I need to get some serious training in. And I will, then I will blog about it, and then everybody wins.
