The two challenges I’ve faced this week have been “junk” in my legs (as coach Oates calls it), and the wind. The junk this week…. Shin splints and numb feet. She also made some comment about my body getting used to being in shock, but I’ve buried that away in the back of my mind for now.
The wind too is making things tougher for me. Miles 6-9 of last Sunday’s 12 mile route were spent running into the wind up North Worcester Street… By the time I was into the last three miles, I was cold, hurting and hungry. I’m thinking of repeating the same route this weekend just because I need to conquer it before I move on to 14 miles. This morning's five miler was the best I’ve felt all week, but still... wind and junk, wind and junk… going to stretch and ice some more now.
