I have been banged up since the last week of May after taking what seemed like a harmless tumble over a log on a group trail run, turned into my longest "break" from running since I started running. I am also at the heaviest weight of my life...so I need to get my rear in gear!
I still have some pain, but with some help from PT, things seem to be looking up and I have kinda started to run more on a consistent basis.
I was also signed up for some cyclocross races, but I decided to forego those as well, to ensure I get healthy and running again before the snow falls.
Here is a weekly summary of the last four weeks...starting with Sunday of course.
9/30 to 10/6
Run: 5 days: 16 miles, 3.5 mile long run
Bike: 2 days: 15 miles
Days off: 1 day
10/7 to 10/13
Run: 5 days: 18.9 miles, 6.3 mile long run
Bike: 1 day: 8.3 miles
Days off: 2 days
10/14 to 10/20
Run: 4 days: 18.7 miles, 6.3 mile long run
Bike: 3 days: 13.7 miles
Days off: 1 day
10/21 to 10/27
Run: 4 days: 13.6 miles, 6.3 mile long run
Bike: 0 days: 0 miles
Days off: 3 days
10/28/18
Dublin Marathon
3:20:53
1:39:48/1:41:05
Held together reasonably well considering I have averaged 9.33 miles per week the 10 weeks proceeding the race with a long run of 6.3 miles. Dublin is a great city, the race was awesome. People love the crowds at Boston...Dublin is better.
Hopefully I did not make my injury worse! Some rest now and back to trying to train...
