The Pre-Run

Tomorrow I have a 9 mile (15/71)  training run, it will be my furthest run since ummmmmm March 2014, I think, when I did the NYC half. I’m anxious, but ready for 9. 

The prep for that runs starts today:

  • Good diet
  • Lots of water
  • No alcohol
  • Bed early 
  • Running fuel ready/purchased

It’s also important to check the weather for a “big” run. It’s supposed to be hot as hell all weekend, so my best bet is to suck it up and get up early tomorrow to run. The heat and humidity will only be worse by Sunday morning, so it’s best for me to just knock the run out ASAP. 

The rest of my run plan includes of course post run:

  • Hearty breakfast
  • Plans to lay by the pool 
  • Beer, ya know for “recovery” 

Ready to wrap up week 4 of marathon training! I’m ¼ there!
