Seen on my run — literally ~30 turtles sunning themselves on a grate.
Good news! I did an easy 6 miles on Friday and it went really, really well. My hip didn’t hurt during the run, and I only felt twinges as the day went on (and about the same yesterday). I’m cautiously optimistic that my two weeks of rest will keep any further issues at bay — at least until after the half marathon next month.
There are 6 weeks left until the race and I did a 9-miler 2.5 weeks ago, so I’m still on track. At this point, I think I’ll aim for 4 more long runs of 7, 8.5, 10, and maybe 11-12 miles. (I once did the half marathon even though my longest run had been only 8 miles, but I’m not sure I can pull that kind of crap anymore!)
I was just thinking the other day about how my longest run before my first half was 9.5 miles. That was actually my fastest half! Too bad I’m not 24 anymore.
Are you running the Aramco Houston Half??
I am!
