Three more easy days of running (plus an additional bike workout I guess I can include) and my legs are starting to get back to normal – no soreness and even a slight spring in my step. Mileage has been very low this week (15), but enough to take the monthly total to over 200. Would be nice to average over 200 miles every month, so I’ll have to see what I can do about that.
Tomorrow morning is the Bellator Wounded Warrior 5k – a first time event taking place down at the Oceanfront. You’d think I had enough of the boardwalk at the Shamrock Marathon last weekend, but nope, I’m heading back to support the Wounded Warrior Project and stay on track for my 50 races in 2009 goal.
Not content with just one race this weekend, I’m also taking part in the Virginia Duathlon on Sunday morning. Don’t worry, I won’t be attempting a bike ride – I’m just the runner guy on a two-man team. Last year, in crazy weather conditions, our team managed to win the Men’s Relay division and I’ll be doing my best to take first place again. To be honest, we were the only team to finish, but Chris rode like a man possessed and the awards were very well deserved.
Enjoy the weekend….
