Training through.....(old post from April of 2009)

After the excitement of last weekend's marathon I began this week off right joining the Big River Monday night run for a nice 7 miler where the after affects of the marathon were in evidence. Basically my legs were still sore though I was surprised how fast I was actually able to cover the 7 mile run--about 64 minutes. I have run that course in about 53--55 minutes when I felt great and was pushing the pace but I was ecstatic to run it in the ballpark of a respectable time the day after a marathon.
