Notes
7 miles on the sloppy puddly towpath at regular easy pace and 5 miles on muddy semi-frozen technical trail which was slower going. I intended to do all 16 of this week's scheduled long run today but at 2 hours 15 min I felt miserable and out of gas at the parking lot so I stopped. I am pretty unsatisfied with myself this week. I made some less than optimal choices about when (while still sick) and where (slow trail) to run for quality marathon training, and I know better than to try to make up a lot of missed mileage in two back to back days. With the trip coming up, I really wanted to get all the miles and runs in since I know travel can make it hard to stick to a schedule. But, there's nothing to do but move on and move forward now. At least I am getting a gym membership this week and can get out of the cold, slippery, gray weather we've been having for the last several weeks.
