Today was a recovery run from yesterday's long run. I did two miles. The first mile I took a few short walk breaks - my left knee was still bothering me. Then I started really focusing on my technique, and the discomfort was greatly alleviated. Still, I didn't want to do too much, especially when my week's total mileage was already pretty high for me. Toady was also the preview of the play I'm in (we open on Monday night) so I had to hurry to get to the show on time. It went GREAT! Ben and I celebrated with an hour-long massage. :D Then this evening we went cycling, and did 18 1/2 miles in 1 hour 8 minutes. We would have gone further, but it got dark too fast. It was probably just as well, since my muscles were all jello after the massage, and I was shaking like a leaf through most of the ride! Now I'm feeling great, and am totally ready to sleep well tonight. Ahhhhh....... |
