This week is big miles.
It’s starting out pretty decent:
Total miles this week: 54.
Monday’s run was half trail and half pavement. It was pure joy running on packed snow in the woods and not seeing a soul.
Somehow I managed to run 21 miles on Monday and wake up to run 15 miles today. This morning I wanted to go back to bed about an hour before needing to leave for the run. So I napped until just minutes before heading out the door. It seemed to work. I started out feeling pretty good. It was a mental training run the entire time.
I feel pretty good right now, on my sofa with my feet up. I’m looking forward to not running tomorrow. Plus it is going to be COLD tomorrow and there is a storm coming in a few days. I dread the treadmill so I’m hoping to get miles in when it warms up.
One thing that kept me running both days was remembering a motivational sign I saw at my gym.
Rest don’t quit. Good advice.
