Running: Day 77
by Logan on January 21, 2012
I took it nice and easy on today’s run. It was the perfect temperature, there weren’t too many cars or people to deal with and the sun was out. I can’t ask for much better during a run. I took the wrong route, but I can only blame myself for that.
I should clarify what I meant by “wrong route.” Both times I’ve been injured it was on the same route. I took that route today, because I thought it was just superstition that the path I took was causing issues with my legs. As it turns out, I felt a twinge in my leg toward the end of the run. It didn’t turn into an issue, but I’m now convinced that there’s something about that route (likely the camber of the road) that’s causing issues. I’m done running there.
I’m set for 13 miles tomorrow and I can’t wait. I looked at my schedule and it turns out I was only supposed to run 5 miles today, but I went for 8 instead. Whoops! Maybe my legs will be a bit tired for tomorrow’s run so it will be a nice warm-up for my half marathon next weekend.
Happy running!
