Day 42, Marathon Training
Still feeling fatigue.
but am feeling better than Friday.
I woke up this morning and went to meet my friend from work. She suggested 7:30 am which was a really late time for me. In retrospect, I wonder if I am always so tired because I force myself out to run very early in the morning. I don’t have work or anything time dependent on Sundays, so why do I do that? Well, It’s going to get hot in a month and then we will all be out cruising with headlampsa t odd hours.
Ran 8 with my friend, very casual. My pace ended up being fine. Tried an Advocare product for caffeine, it gave me a headache. I will have to mix it differently next time.
After I went to cycle for an hour, but I could only manage 30 mins. My legs could have gone on, but I was feeling SO tired.
I then iced everything. On the way out of the gym one of the trainers asked me if I was OK…I didn’t look good.
Had some food now going to take an official get in the bed nap, and well… we shall see if I get more recovered during my recovery week.
I have a funny feeling THIS past week should have been for recovery and I would be doing better, but…
thats not the way it worked.
