Running two races, one speedwork session and one near tempo 5 miler in 8 days was not a good thing for this grand masters bear. I just can't keep out of the honey pot. So I have cut back intensity and amount of running again for my achilles inflammation and my hamstring strain. I tried to go swim on Monday, but the MAC pool (indoor and outdoor) was closed due to the bad weather. So I went on Tuesday and did the longest continuous swim of my life, 800meters. I am happy about that. The schedule for the rest of the week is:
Tonight: yoga
Thurs: 5 mile run (medium heart rate)
Friday: swim or rest
Saturday: 40 mile bike
Sunday: 5 mile run (low heart rate)
Repeat after me. Slow runs are better than no runs at all.

We have six easy on tap for tonight if you're in the neighborhood. I can turn you around early if five is the ticket.

hey! follow all that advice you keep showering on me! I think "Dad Tips" # 4, 37, 38, 82 and 129 should do the trick.
