Taking a step back
As mentioned in my prior posts, my right leg is giving me resistance to this training stuff. Due to that I am going to take it easy this week. Try and give the leg a little bit more time to recover.
The plan is to do some real light jogging on a dirt track. That is just about as boring as a dreadmill (not misspelled). Around and around I will go. Each lap is about a 1/3 of a mile. That will lessen the pounding that my leg and knees have while running on the asphalt.
I am still quite confident about finishing in less than 5 hours. However my hopes of doing better than a 4:30 might not come to fruition. My time will determined on how well my body recovers during the taper part of program.
