Friday: Let The Weekend Begin (Read 35 times)

    Onemile yeah, ever since my day off I've been feeling good. Legs felt a little tired before I started today, but cardio was the limiting factor in the workout, not the legs. Just normal leg fatigue.

     

    I might take a day off running on Friday to add to the taper

    Nice!

        The child was pretty restless throughout the night so I decided against going to the gym, DH has a long drive today from Evansville to Nashville TN to pick up a fork truck and then drive the 5 hours back here this afternoon. I didn't want him to lose any sleep so I slept in.

        Got a 10 mile race/LR tomorrow, should be fun. I ain't racing, I'm just going to get my LR in and be happy with that. The ache and stiffness in my legs, specifically my right quad, is nearly completely nonexistent. I can honestly say I haven't really felt it since last week, I'd like to think that getting back on my vitamins (Iron and Magnesium, Joint support and the stuff I got off Amazon for blood circulation) has helped a lot. Also getting back to eating steaks (red meat), but all this could be just a coincidence.

            Glad you're feeling better. Most of the time it's pretty hard to know for sure if what we're doing is healing us or if it would have healed anyway.

                I personally think vitamins and random stuff sold on Amazon are not efficacious. BUT even placebo effect can be powerful. Glad you are feeling better

                   I do remember now!  Should be an adventure!

                      Yep. If you believe it worked, it did. Even if it didn't.

                        +1 . Positive results is what counts.

                          Would I need screws to run in snow with trail shoes?

                            Screws might be placebo in that case, but whatever works, man!

                              I run a variation of this for half marathon training. It's a great workout for any distance though. Nice job. ✔
