Day 87 & 88 – 4 and Rest
By Sarah. Filed in Marathon Training Posts |
I only had to run 4 miles yesterday morning! This tapering business is alright. I woke up in the morning and ran a quick 4 before work which I haven’t done in a while. I was feeling kind of sick (tis the season) but it went fine. I ran down Boylston which was pretty entertaining. Lots of groups, I couldn’t figure out what everyone was doing.. There was the walk your dog group, the church group, the rich mom group, but tons of others that I couldn’t place just on the streets at 8AM. Either way, lots of people watching which kept me entertained and it made me realize what a small, close-knit city Boston is.
Today I had a rest day, and Simon came to visit! We had dinner and met a few friends out at a bar. I only had one beer (we mile run tomorrow) but it was nice to feel like a normal (non-long distance couple) that just has a beer on Friday night. I also am so excited that I only have to run 12 tomorrow, only 2 hours – no more full day event runs! woo hoo! I’ll keep you posted!
