Not too much to update. Still not 100%. If I was to give it a number, id say I am around 50%. I am fit and can run a marathon, but the legs are not on par with my fitness. Tried going out on a long run last sunday but after 2 miles was in enough pain to turn me around, which if you know me, I am stubborn and never quit. I was hit with depression and sadness having to end my run.
I am taking off this whole week up the half marathon on sunday. I am getting in solid XC training done on the bike and arc trainer. Some days I am doing up to 2 hrs of cardio. I am also going to the chiro 5 times this week to be lasered and electric therapy and doing more strength exercises all week and working on staying loose and fresh for sunday. I am hoping that a whole week off of the road will help me be able to get through the half relatively pain free. I know I will feel some pain/discomfort, just want it at a level where I can hit under 2hr goal.
Ill post after the race sunday and let you know how I did.
