My week of "rest"

I ended last week with an extra-slow long run. After two races and a track workout, my legs were getting pretty rubbery.  Might not have gotten enough rest after that last marathon, and it is still lingering.  This week, I missed the track, and put in some long, slow distance.  I'm definitely feeling a little better, even after a nice 10 miles around my town last night.  Saturday, I'm planning to bump up the miles from where I've been, and should be able to handle it.  I don't want to fall too far from marathon distance training.  So, I'll call this an off week or recovery week, or mental health week.  Whatever the name, I needed it.

As far as marathons go, I'm heading to Maine and Cali this Fall, and planning my weekly mileage and work leading up to them.  Gotta keep getting those states in.
