To borrow a line from Dickens' "Tale of two Cities," I'd have to title this post "it was the best of times, it was the worst of times." I won't quote the entire paragraph, but suffice to say, this describes my state of mind at the moment. I have had some pretty strong runs lately. It has been 6 days since I posted so an update: 10k followed by strides, 5k followed by 300 stair sprints, 8.56 miles, a craptastic 3.7 miles followed by 30 laps in the pool. These 3.7 miles clocked in yesterday was one of the worst runs I've had this year - I broke out into an awful rash which caused my left side to swell up. This happened almost immediately after I started. I sucked it up for 30 minutes before leaving with my tail between my legs.
19 miles this am. 18 miles in 155 minutes. Walked the last mile home in 20 minutes.
