That’s what I was thinking a week after Red Deer. But the coach has other plans …something about a proper recovery?

I took one week off after the marathon and had my first run today. A nice 35 minute jog around the river valley. I felt good with one little niggle in my right foot that went away 15 minutes into the run.

And the instructions from Andrew are to do more of the same for another few weeks. “Just jog around” he says. And I think, “Who am I to argue with a guy who got me to a PR?”.

So, I’m taking it easy and healing up. Apparently, I’m going to need the rest because Andrew’s taking my training up a notch for the two months prior to Regina.

Cool.
