11 Miler

I have come to the conclusion that I can no longer do strength workouts a day or two before a long run. I have reach that point in my training. With my chest and shoulders being sore, it does not make for a good run.


Workout

11 mile run of hills.

This was my toughest run of the year. I knew it was going to be bad when I saw a coyote in the middle of the trail a few minutes into my run.

My upper body was very sore, which didn’t help. It was also hot and humid, I started my run at about 10am. My body has not adjusted to the heat yet. My allergies were also making it a little harder to breath. This happens every year and it takes a couple of weeks for my body to adjust.
