After the near death experience yesterday (no it really wasn’t that bad, it sucked, but it wasn’t that bad.) I decided to take it easy. I even broke out the old Garmin, which was starting to collect dust. I just haven’t found the need for it lately. When I have had a chance to run, I have just been using my Timex Ironman, or none at all.
Hell, I have not even used the iPod in months. (Don’t get me wrong I love the iPod, and the Garmin, they were my best friends before the St. Louis Marathon. )
Today I went 6.5 miles at about a 8:50 pace. It seemed like I was running much faster than that, but the watch doesn’t lie.
I am also starting to think about Saturdays race in Canton. I haven’t been on the bike or in the pool since Sunday and hope to do a split brick tomorrow and take a one day breather.
I was thinking I might have some time off after Canton, but the Parade Run is the following Thursday and then Abes Able….
Will the insanity ever end?
