T-Minus 26 Days and Counting. . .

The last few weeks after our long runs, I've taken a little extra time off until the next run and I think it's left me sluggish. So, today, I got back into it with an easy 5K in 26:25, capped off with a 7:50 last mile. Most importantly, my legs felt incredibly fresh and my turnover rate was quick from start to finish.

As we get ready for Sunday's 20-miler, I'm planning to hit my tempo run on Wednesday and then do my 6 x 1200 on Friday. I think that should keep me fresh and get the legs ready for the long run.
