I really was planning on running on Sunday, but Mr. Shoe and I attended a wedding Saturday night and I was just exhausted all day Sunday. It is actually a small miracle that I made it through Sunday without taking a nap.
I think it is time to sit down and write an actual training/recovery plan. I do better when I have a written plan. If I am just making it up as I go, I let myself make up excuses as well (see above). I have been hesitant to write an actual plan, because I didn't want to feel guilty if I couldn't stick with it due to my injury. But I haven't had any issues with my calf so I think it is time to get a plan going.
Awesome job on the runs you did get in! That's not something to be written off, especially coming off an injury!
ReplyDeleteI feel ya there. It's soooo easy to come up with something else to do or a reason to skip your workout when you don't have something written out.
I need to write out a more concrete plan in the near future. I wrote down a half-hearted one just to get me through this coming weekend, but I need a more solid plan. After I get back from this weekend's events, I'll be writing up a new training plan.
