May the 4th be with you!
- 20min WU, right into 5mile TT (29:46), 3min walk around, 15min CD
Solid WO this morning. I met Balabuck and Matt at Leon's at 5:50am. We warmed up on the 10mile course to the marina and then did a 5mile TT on the last 5mile of the course. Felt strong but not rested on this run.
Had one dry heaving spell in the 4th mile and then basically fought puking the entire last mile. Had to back off a bit but managed to stay calm and work through the rough patches. I repeated "I am light, I am quick" over and over again for the first 3miles. I added in "I am strong" on the 4th mile.During the last mile at times my focus drifted to the pain but I would bring it back.
I did lots of work on my achilles this week and it was pretty good today - a bit pinchy around mile 4. It is really sore tonight and difficult to walk.
