Last night, I was supposed to run 5 miles, but I felt shooting pain go up my leg. I stopped just 0.10 shy of hitting 3 miles at an easy 9:40/mile pace. It is possible that I am developing shin splints from doing hills or doing sprints. Early in my training I felt shin splints, but I took it easy, but now they are getting more aggravated. Last night, I switched to erging 4000m and called it a night. I was disappointed because I am getting faster, but limited because of my condition. Today, is rest day. Tomorrow is 12 miles.
Quote of the Day:
"I run because it's so symbolic of life. You have to drive yourself to overcome the obstacles. You might feel that you can't. But then you find your inner strength, and realize you're capable of so much more than you thought."
--Arthur Blank
I'm running the 114th Boston Marathon to help others reach their personal finish lines-get into college, graduate and to GO FAR in life! Be a part of the journey!
