I finally decided today that I’d given my hip/groin muscles enough of a rest. Ran my second fastest 5K and it sooo helped my mood

Brutal 16 today.

11 at 10:30

4 at 11:30

and 1 at 16:00 lol.

The run was not bad....it was the weird cramps and pains afterwards that made it horrible. Longest run since last January and I feel it.

Next weeks 18 is going to suck haha.

As I first read your post I was going to reply “what are you talking about, you just did 21 in September?!” Then my coffee started to kick in ... and I realized it was miles, not kilometers

Are you using a specific training plan for an event? Two long runs of that distance on top of each other is not easy.

Enjoy yourself before the race, but not too much until after the race.

Finished my W&D practice, 4 on Saturday, 10 on Sunday. 23 for the week. Going to take this week off and relax.

2.4 miles tonight in a group run, but a real slog. Wasn’t prepared for the rain (a cap would have kept my glasses dry(er), with the time change it was dark from the start, and since I have an upcoming race I wasn’t willing to push it and slip in the dark on cobblestone. I managed to finish the run (we were supposed to do 2x15 mins with 2 mins walk break) but I eventually bagged the group to finish on my own. I usually enjoy running in a group but I think I needed some alone time more.

I'm doing Hal Higdon Intermediate 2, it's the one I have used for years.

I'm a fan. I used his Dopey plan.

Interesting. I will look into it, though I am just doing the marathon in January.

Weekend was hiking & swimming, was hoping that would make the knee happy. Nope. 1@.5@10 then bike today.

6.1 miles last night at an 11:30 pace. Ran after work, unfortunately I am in New Hampshire and next week,
due to "daylight savings time", it will be dark when I get out of work.

Always be careful with the knees. I hope it comes around and you start feeling better.

It's probably the most often used Goofy Challenge program to my best knowledge.
