Day412 random
Don’t really have much to write but trying to throw something together here while on my way to work. I’m taking the train today and plan to run back home after work. Maybe a little crazy. The mileage from google map is 14-15 miles but some of those are on roads without sidewalks, so I…

Day407 recovery
Almost two weeks now, recovery from the hundred mile run is still going slowly. Immediately after the race, I could hardly walk. I slept for an hour or so before going back to the hotel that day. I then slept for the next 8 hours or so. There was no running the following day. Besides,…

Day405
I’m still savoring the run at the Rocky Raccoon. I was disoriented during the race and immediately afterward of putting together much coherent thoughts. Time flies. My sleep pattern is out of wack too. I did not get much sleep beforehand. There was no sleep during the race. And I slept a lot afterward when…

Day305 recharged
I felt a bit better after a day of rest. I didn’t want to take a break but I couldn’t squeeze any more out of my body. It just stopped performing. Last weekend was the lowest miles I have done since April. Every weekend I want to go out to put up 50-60 miles. The…

Day299 Last day
Yay! Tomorrow we will begin a new chapter and we kick this crazy corona2020 in the bucket. Kidding. I think we will live with the new normal for a long time. Not anything spectacular to write about today except it is the last day for filler. I do have something but they are controversial and…

day272 recovery run
Run#3 distance 10 mi, GVRAT 58 mi. I got lazy of measuring the distances on Google Map. I don’t know how to do it from the phone. There is some problem with the live tracking website, so I am running blind now until they fix it. Today run was kind of hard as expected. I…

Day 124
Day 124 I’m trying to get back to my run schedule. But feeling tired generally. What happened : I had two great runs last two days, doing about 4 miles each day. It was hard to breath until couple miles in. I was easily get winded. Legs are still tired. I am hoping tonight run…

Post marathon blue
Day 110 Not sure if it is actually real thing, but I’m suffering post marathon blue. I guess when you get such a runner high and a week later you feel normal life is too normal. The cure is, of course, to go back out and run. I returned to semi formal training but don’t…

Recovery
Day 96 I spent last few days on recovery. Basically no running. Nothing much to say. Today is the fourth day but still I feel tired. I have not recovered 100%. I feel it is a little over 50% and maybe at 60%. I am glad to be healthy though. I should be ready for…

Expectation
I would like to believe that I am somehow better than last year in term of having greater endurance after completed all those marathons. I can tough through anything. Anyhow these last few weeks after my marathon (wow almost a month now), I am feeling very lethargic and it brought me down a notch. I…
