Tour de hills half marathon @ recovery (Turtle Creek, Falconbridge, Popular Forest, Shady Branch) all up hill. 13.1 in 1:54:29 (9:27, 8:58, 8:53, 9:10, 9:13, 9:10, 8:45, 8:41, 8:40, 8:24, 8:08, 7:52, 8:10) One would think that after a 20 miler pretty much at race pace that I would have some soreness, some heavy legs, something?? Unlike like last week recoveries with John.. the legs felt totally fine and actually somewhat fresh today. Maybe John truly did kick my butt last week :-) Ive long ago quit trying to figure out this crazy sport. I guess if could actually solve what separates good runs from bad runs then I could write a book and be a rich author like Bart and Dean. I have the Colonial 200 on Friday and I plan on going into Friday's leg #2 being totally fresh. Going to run Monday recovery and Tuesday prob 10 - 12 then 2 days complete rest going into Friday morning. Miles for the week ending Sunday = 50.32 good mileage considering my Monday and Tuesday combined total was 1 mile. Onwards Crash
