Training Totals

Recap – This weeks plan was to add some small bike milage and keep my running miles the same, then after feeling strong on Monday I toyed with the idea of upping the milage by two miles. By Wednesday, the beginning of plantar faciitis was lurking around the edges of my right hell and I decided to just keep the milage the same. And, with weather not permitting any commuting by bike (until today when I too spent to do it) there was no biking.

I’m not going to bear myself up over the biking. Whatever, I wanted to get some crosstraining in, and it didn’t work. That’s fine. Plenty of time for that. I hope I have done enough for this PF. It felt fine last night, but is hurting me pretty considerably today. Here’s to hoping the day off will give it time to get itself right, cause I really want to get out there and do four miles tomorrow.

Oh, and this week is a race week for me. I’ll be doing a 5k on Sunday. I hope to break my PR but I’m worried the injury and how much I have ramped up my milage in the last month is going to bite me in the ass. I don’t plan to taper for this, I’ll save my long run till after the race and I won’t raise the weekly milage, but that’s about it. Anyway, here’s the numbers

    And I thought it was a big deal when I rode the bike (your sister’s) six miles yesterday. It’s not the biking, it’s the butt with that little seat.
