I ...I'm glad your body is starting to recover. I know how my body feels post-marathon, so I can only imagine it would be a lot worse running twice as far! And I know how you feel about post-race blues. I think it's hard to put into words, but I have been there!<br /><br />I'm sure your body is going to be happy that you are going to be doing a lot of cross training for the next few months!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14215575637275919972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-358832218008785220.post-45556618714697751022011-04-23T02:22:39.363-07:002011-04-23T02:22:39.363-07:00Hey :)
I know what you mean- It feels like people...Hey :)<br /><br />I know what you mean- It feels like people should somehow KNOW your achievements.<br /><br />I completely am in awe of how much pain you must be dealing with! I had a hill race the other day that was all of 3.5 miles and my ankles are stiff from the impact. I cannot imagine doing 50!<br /><br />I do seem to get post-race blues, even on the short distances. I think its an effect of suddenly loosing a target I was driving for? <br /><br />Either way take care, you know YOUR body, give yourself all the time in the world to heal if you need it.<br /><br />And remember to be SO impressed at yourself. Can't wait to hear about traithlons :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00327583752787289125noreply@blogger.com
