Week 5, Day 3
Phase: Pre-Marathon
Workout: 40 to 50 minute Easy Run
Purpose: Build Endurance
Not feeling it tonight. Feeling a little under the weather (too much running? too many push ups? too much ab work?) and with the temperature in the mid-90’s decided on a steady treadmill run instead of battling the heat and humidity.

42 minutes was long enough and at least I’m not feeling any worse for doing it.

Time for a nap to recharge the batteries. Luckily it’s a non Hundred Push Ups day, but I must be honest, I’m not looking forward to tomorrow’s fartlek run in the sun. Fartlek, in case you didn’t know, is Swedish for “speed play” - more details at the what-would-I-do-without-you WikiPedia.
