Maybe I spoke too soon
I knew if I said something it might jinx it.
I ran 9 miles on Wednesday night and the run was pretty nice. I ran a new route which made it less boring. But later that night and the next day, I had the old familiar ache in my left shin. It may be related to the calf pain after New Haven. Its not shin splints yet, but its what I call “pre-shin splints”.
I took thursday off because I was dead tired. I’ve been going to work really early and I’m not getting any sleep. I’m so exhausted its no wonder I’m not recovering. Friday night I took my son to a special scout camp overnight and we just got back. So I had essentially, three rest days in a row. Tomorrow I’ll go out and see how I do on a long run.
Is it hot where you are? Its incredibly hot and humid here. Bleh. Looks like thundershowers tomorrow. I’m hoping it won’t be so bad in the morning.
