I do think granting yourself an occasional day to pack it in is wise not being a baby. You too are welcome but I am not sure you can run at my slow pace.<BR/><BR/>I also think both of you are having some post Superior blues. I have had it easy this year as none of my races have been that important, I just have had enough to keep me moving on to the next one. So take a week or two or more off and when you are ready to plan again you will.

Many times I made it to Afton, didn't feel great, and crash and burn.<BR/><BR/>The benches along the river right before the course goes under the bridge and back up to campground I have named "the benches of dispair". I have crashed hard there twice, and walked backed to the parking lot.<BR/><BR/>I have found when you push through bad days, form suffers, and a lot of other things go wrong. I usually give up early when that happens.

We finished about 30 minutes before the rain. I envy you getting out there in these cool days. I am taking a few months off, I think... Maybe a run or two a week. I am just tired and sore...Londellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04937126040128805154noreply@blogger.com
