RUN 8 miles in 1:15
BIKE COMMUTE 6.4 miles
So this makes 30 miles for my midweek running. Funny to think I'm planning to (again) run 100 miles in under 30 hours, here I'm running 30 miles over 3 days and complaining out being tired.
Yeah, I'm tired. And that lets doubt seep into my head. I walked Sugar before the run and when she lunged to sniff a passing runner I fell over her. BAM! Onto the rough path on my right knee, left hand, and right elbow. No blood, but bruising.
Of course that leads to "OMG did I break another bone" type of thinking.
After the walk I ran, and my mind was entertaining (as it often does) the idea of doing 4x2 loops, or 8 x 1 mile loops, or some cheap cheat of the run. My head tries to tell me, it will be faster to do it that way...what? 8 miles is 8 miles, it won't be faster any other way. Head games.
It was a bit of a drudge to run, would have been better to join the Thursday group but I wanted to be to work early, but I got it done!
REST! And maybe some ice on that knee.
