OK so day 2 post half marathon, I am feeling it. I wish my house did not have stairs. It hurts to sit..my poor quads...
I did go to the gym today. No running, just bike for 40 minutes. That did not hurt at all.
Tomorrow I cannot run either it is my 6 mos screening to see if the tumor I have on my kidney has grown. I know I have it since July of 2009 (2009 was NOT my year). It has not grown since then so fingers crossed it will be the same this time. I usually don't think about it too much except when the 6 mos is up and I have to have the ultrasound then of course that is all I can think about. Unfortunately they cannot do a biopsy on these kind of tumors so we don't know what kind it is. The fact that it has not grown is a good sign.
Did you see I modified the name of my blog?
The next Half Marathon will be The Disneyland Half Marathon on Labor day weekend
It was between this one and the Rock and Roll Los Angeles Half Marathon in October .
How can I not do Disneyland though? The course goes in both park and at Angel Stadium and it is DISNEYLAND! Last year I ran the 5k race and I remember wishing I was ready for the big race. My kids will do the kids race on the Saturday and we will stay there for my race on Sunday. Like everything Disney it is not cheap: $125 well $133.63 once Active adds their lovely processing fee.
One thing I learned from my first training experience is that 1 double digit run is not enough to get ready for the half marathon. I am not sure if I will use the same plan but if I do, I will add one more 10-12 miler.
