I ran 8 miles last night. I am sore today. Sore. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? How does my body know that I am not currently training for a marathon, so it is, in turn, allowed to hurt more??? How?
10, 12, 14 miles---a month ago---NO PROBLEM!
My body is a fickle creature. It requires a great deal of attention and training apparently.
Bummer. I was really hoping my fitness level would just maintain without me having to run for many hours at a time.
Don't get me wrong---I LOVE to run. I kind of just wanted to do it in one hour bursts. (and still be able to run a 1/2 when I felt like it. ha. ha. ha.)
So, body-o-mine, point made. I get it. I need to run farther if I want to run farther. I will just revel in those under double digit midweek training runs. See if you can stop me.
