Weekly Training Update
My legs are sore from my marathon yesterday but I am feeling pretty good that I got it done. Now I need to quickly turn around cause my next marathon will be here in just under three weeks. It’s going to be hot, so preparing for this next race involves getting into the sauna to make sure I am kinda acclimatised before going, but I am not sure it is going to help that much. I am still trying to dygest my race yesterday, as I should be really happy with the results but still have some mixed feelings about it.
I don’t want to get running too soon after my marathon, but need to get my legs moving, so I will be doing a lot of walking over the coming week to get back moving and will see where I am by Friday to decide if I want to add any speed sessions into my training.
My marathon training has been a little different than normal, with focusing on hill training, and long interval training and I think it kinda worked on the day, even though I was a little annoyed with my race time. I need to remember the last time I did the Wellington Marathon, I ran over 10 minutes slower and felt like crap as well.
