A rough midweeker

By Joel Myhre

March 29, 2007

Today, I did an eight-mile run. It represents the longest middle-of-the-week run so far. The conditions, however, were excellent -- low 40s and cloudy. Lousy for sitting on a beach, great for running.

The run went fine, though at slightly over 9 minutes a mile, it could have been faster. My foot also started giving me some problems. I hope it works itself out. The problem, I know, is that rest is probably the only cure.

With 33 miles scheduled this week, it will probably also be the most I have ever run in one week. I'm starting to wonder if this was a dumb idea to run a marathon. It's too late now.
