take it easy

i had to take it easy this morning- the prospect of being out ther- far- pushing through with tired legs did not seem a viable option- so i lingered in bed an extra half an hour- knowing even then that i would not have daylight to help me find my way. i chose the out and back run along glebe that had become the trademark-slug run, and i just hoped that the time would pass quickly- and it did- though the last protions up hill had my hamstrings complaining. as i predicted-56 minutes. i will likely feel good this evening from the leisure running- at least i can hope. yesterday i felt strong.
the new invigoration of wanting to really train and irradicate my weaknesses has seized me. i try not to obsee, i know that the real hard stuff is to come- the stuff that will test the muscle fibers, recovery time.

when i hear fro miami- i can figure out how i am really going to make things happen- until then i see some merit in strengthening my legs and upper body-
running hard is in the near future- but not the next week.
