Ok, one more quality run before the race
8.5 Miles - 25K Race Pace - 1:04:49
0.5 Miles - Walk - ?????
1 Miles - Easy - ?????
I read a lot of article on the major marathon runners, and I have always heard them talk about getting discouraged while training. I never really knew what it was, or how they got discouraged. Today I found out though. Up till today, every run I have gone on, I have run either farther, harder, or faster than I planned, and I haven't stopped short of what I planned on running. It's been a good feeling. That wasn't the case today.
I felt really good today, so when I started my 8 mile easy run, and noticed that I was on a good pace, I figured why not make it a Race Pace day, and go 10. Good plan. Except when I rounded mile 8, my right hamstring and back of my knee started hurting, so I stopped at 8.5 and walked. After a half mile I jogged the last mile.
Stopping at 8.5 miles was discouraging, I have never had to do that before, I have been tired, and in pain, but I could always just push through it. Not today, it was a different pain, and I stated thinking about the race next weekend, and not wanting to get injured.....don't know, just wasn't a good feeling to stop like that.
I'm sure I am ok, and will be fine next Saturday......but for some reason, I just had to walk.
