A Little Setback

from The Stubborn Tortoise · host Donna Pazdera

So, I bailed on doing the Trailway marathon on Saturday because my allergies flared up and I figured spending all day in the woods was kind of a bad idea. Unfortunately, I hadn't run much all week as I anticipated saving my legs for the weekend. The weekend runs were productive but not near the mileage I needed for the week. This leaves me rather undertrained for the 50K at Mission Tejas in two weeks. I'll eke it out but Lord knows it won't be pretty. Oh, and I am loving the Coros Apex Pro watch I bought a couple of weeks ago. Pretty simple interface and has some cool options like setting it to run, track run or trail run. I know other watches do this, but just not any I've used. It's two thumbs up for now.
