Since I already posted about my half-marathon race last Sunday, there's not much more to say about this week, which I spent recovering from that race and getting ready for the two hardest weeks of this training cycle. I intended to run easy every day this week after Sunday's race, but on Wednesday morning I woke up with a migraine and couldn't run that entire day. Mercifully, I don't get migraines very often any more, and they're less intense than they used to be. But when they do happen, it still wipes me out for at least a day and leaves me feeling, even the next day, like I've undergone electric shock treatment and have some stray neural wires that need reconnecting. So I had that to recover from too by the latter half of the week. I guess if it had to happen, then this was a good week for it. I'm ready to get back at it, though, and the weather is cooperating now that it is officially Fall. I've also been thinking more about training after the marathon and about lessons to draw from Sunday's race, but I'll reserve discussion of such matters for another post.
