Enough of the blood and guts of 'marathoning', will be getting back to basics now and working on base leading into the Glasshouse 100 in September. Will have the Flinders 50km and maybe a pacing role at the Brisbane marathon to negotiate beforehand all being well, but this week is about recovery.
Went out for a trundle with the Courier Mail Bridge to Brisbane training group last night. I swept up behind the intermediate group and it was just what I needed. Not just a gentle 10 km or so (after adding a little on my own later) but giving a few people a push along when they needed it. It'll be interesting to see how some of these guys progress. One keen young lady who struggled doggedly right at the back, sucked it all in and simply said, "should I perhaps start with the beginners next week instead of the intermediates?". No hint of not sticking with it.
Some DOMS this morning, but nothing nasty. Nice and easy this evening then an early session with the Active Stride running group tomorrow morning, then more easy km's through the rest of the week and weekend before getting back to it next week.
Really looking forward to Glasshouse at the end of the month.
