Finished my second week of marathon training and am feeling pretty good. The shorter runs I have done during the week have been late in the day, but I am still getting them done. Monday I completed my weekly long run of nine miles. Before I headed out, my left knee started bothering me, feeling very tight on the inside. I started off slowly, keeping my pace a little slower than normal as to not go out to fast. Averaged a HR of 146 with my MIO Alpha with only a few times slowing to walking to kind of rest. The weather was perfect in the low 70's and full sun. I know for sure last week I over dressed. I actually felt stronger and more relaxed than during my last weeks long run. I am getting in the groove of the pace and HR. I was fully hydrated with my HoneyMaxx orange traveling in my Orange Mud HydraQuiver. In the time I was out, I still had some left over in my bottle when I got home.
I am working this week on increasing my cardio on the rollers and a few runs are planned during the week with my next long run coming next Sunday.
No real tight muscles to complain of but I will still work with the RumbleRoller Beastie this week.
