I'm learning at my age that I get the runs I deserve. It's not like when I was younger and could roll out of bed and knock off a long run regardless of what I did or didn't do the week before. Ah, youth. This was a recovery week before more weeks of mileage build up. An 8-miler. I didn't eat, sleep, or hydrate well the week before. My body knew it on Saturday. I finished the run under my goal time; however, my mind and body were never into it. I had to push myself the whole time. Can't let that happen next week because it's a 13.5 miler. Begin with the end in mind as I plan my week. What kind of run do I want next Saturday? It all starts Sunday. Today.
Fourteen weeks down. Eleven weeks to go.
