Last Week Sucked...

Long runs last week really took it out of me. All my runs were extremely slow, topped off by a 10.2 mile run at almost a 9:00/mile pace on Saturday. A little discouraging and frustrating. I was an idiot and ran way too long without hydration in heat and humidity. I believe I dehydrated a bit. I got a side cramp bad on the 10 mile run but pushed through thinking that was the right thing to do... Well, now my side still hurts. I think I may have strained something??? Not sure how you strain anything from a side stitch, but I have seemed to manage to do so. It hurts a little to breath, but I have taken the last two days off, so I think it should be OK. This week I have another speed week, depending on how I feel, it may turn into a wimp week.

Tomorrow I will sign up for the Air Force Half-Marathon, the State-to-State Half Marathon, and the Columbus Half Marathon. If you plan on running any of those races, make sure you sign up on or before July 31st because prices increase after that.

Hope everyone's training is going well and let's pray this freaking humidity goes AWAY.
