Rainy Day

Getting a run in on a rainy day takes timing.  Since today was a work day and a rainy day my choices for running were lunch and after work.  When I looked at the forecast it looked like lunch was my best bet.  I dressed for a run and went outside and it was drizzling.  I came back inside but then decided to go run since there was no lightening.  It did clear up so I got in a dry run.

Today's workout was a 4 mile recovery run with hills.  I ran the subdivision which is pretty hilly.  I ran easy but felt stronger as I ran.  Each mile was faster than the previous mile.

I was watching the Cardinal baseball game and they were talking about pitchers with a dead arm.  When a pitcher has a dead arm their velocity drops.  It is usually due to being tired.  The last couple days I have felt like I have dead legs.  I have pushed through my workouts but I have felt tired.  I think the taper the next couple weeks will do me good and I will be strong and ready for the race.
