Started Back Up With A Short Easy-Paced Run

You are currently viewing Started Back Up With A Short Easy-Paced Run

After four days of complete rest, it was time to get moving again. I started back up with a short, easy-paced run, up at the local High School.

I wanted to ease back into training today. Normally, I would do this with a short bike ride. I couldn’t do that today however, because my bike is still packed up in it’s case. I will reassemble, and also clean it, tomorrow.

I could have gone to the pool for a swim, but that would have consumed more time than I really had available. So in the end I ran.  Nothing spectacular, just a thirty minute run on fairly level ground.

My body felt pretty good on the run.  I couldn’t feel any after effects of Oceanside in my legs, which was a really good sign.  I would normally still feel a little sore, but today nothing.  Even though I feel really good, I am still planning to ease back into training over the next couple of days.

Now that I have started back up, I need to also begin working on the items I discussed in my blog post yesterday.  That will start in the morning with some strength work for my hamstrings and adductors.
