Up Down Repeat

As most of you have gathered, I've taken my racing schedule down a notch or three. I'm back to recovery and base building. No more really long runs for a while. Add in lots of biking and a few short runs on dirt. I must hurry up and learn some patience, come on...come on. This seems to be an annual pattern. My speed and abilities go up in the spring and summer but then by fall I'm back to limping along slowly.

I'm biking to work, not sure how far it is exactly, about 14 miles with a monster hill right at the end.


Here's a look at the elevation of a nice 6 mile loop I've "discovered". I think it's soft enough to let my foot and ankles heal.

After taking 3 weeks off I was still about to finish 26.2 miles. Slowly but I finished, my legs are pretty fresh today, but my foot... My foot is no better than it was 3 weeks ago.


If I hold my watch up like this, it keeps go time.


It was a nice day. No sun but we did missed the big downpours that some people got caught in.


Next I'll try running on dirt to see if that feels any better.
