Grey Skies Descend

Sunday March 20, 2011 (Recovery Week)
Calves felt battered after Saturdays race but surprisingly it hurts to walk but not to run.  Hammer & I had a leisurely breakfast at Leura on Sunday after the race, then browsed the local stores before heading home to beat the weekend traffic into town.
 
Light massage on Monday, rest day Tuesday and I got out for an easy hour run on the streets of St Ives on Wednesday,  an hour long beachside run on Friday and on Saturday. I had a scheduled 2 hour  on Sunday, but a late night on Saturday and torrential rain on Sunday morning convinced me that maybe I needed to recover more - so no run on Sunday!

A weeks total of  three hours easy running. I am aiming at doing a  reverse taper before picking up the training volume for The North Face 100k race in 9 weeks time.
