I came down with the flu last Sunday. I didn't actually realize it was the flu until about Monday evening. I missed my scheduled runs on Monday and Tuesday of this week and didn't actually get back into it until Thursday night (Wednesday is a day off anyhow). On Thursday I ran 2.5 miles.
I intended to run on Friday but I allowed myself to miss it so that we could accept a last minute invite to my sister-in-law's house for dinner. I hate that I let myself do that!
Saturday morning I ran 5 miles. I was supposed to do 5.5 miles. This coming Saturday I'm scheduled to run 9 miles. I'm definitely going to have to get geared up for a good week of training!
I'm going to run and lift weights tonight to purge my body of all the crap I put into it yesterday and today will attending the Iowa vs. Penn State football game in Iowa City, IA. Good times for sure but way too unhealthy!
Hey just found your blog...have dropped 50 lbs in the last year (in my 50's)...195 bodyweight...my run schedule sounds like yours.
ReplyDeleteTake a look at my blog and follow me, if you would.
Thanks and good luck on the half-marathon goal.
