To paraphrase Whitney Houston. 45 minute run this morning with Momo. And the title sums it all up. Not a great run but an ok one and I will take that happily. Saturday's run was brutal, Monday's was hard so I am very happy for an ok run. I do think that 45 minutes is too long for Mo. I think he can do it physically no problem but I've noticed he checks out mentally at about 30 minutes. So in the future I will limit him to 30 minutes. I definitely want him to continue to enjoy running with me.
I also think that I will start tracking my resting heartrate in the mornings. I am a little worried about overtraining. The physical effort it takes to do my runs seems to be increasing not decreasing and that is discouraging. I made a point to ice my feet after today's run. I have gotten out of that habit and forgot just how great it feels. I hope that it will also decrease my stiffness I get hours after my run.
Running is a big question mark that’s there each and every day. It asks you, ‘Are you going to be a wimp or are you going to be strong today?' - Peter Maher, Irish-Canadian Olympian
