Struggles to Seventeen
I’ve been quite sporadic in my updates here as of late, in part due to the care needs of my aunt who moved in with us about a month ago. I’ve been able–barely–to keep up with my running schedule.
I’ve been doing it, but not as well as I would like.
Honestly, getting up to fifteen miles was, while challenging, doable. Sixteen and seventeen have been harder. I could run the entire fifteen mile distance, but beyond that has been more of a struggle.
I am hoping the issue is mostly the heat. Fortunately, I have not had cramping, which has limited me in the past, and no injuries to speak of.
This coming week I have an eighteen miler scheduled, then a nineteen, then a couple of weeks of tapering before the Honolulu Marathon. I hope things go well.
