Ouch, ouch, ouch! Today hurt, especially afterward. My left calf is killing me
tonight! While I was pounding away 6 miles at the school I started thinking
about the different aches and the drag that I feel and when it started. I ran
10 less miles last week than I had planned and I took an additional rest day, I
really though this week I would be back at it, feeling good. But, that's just
not the case. One thing I changed about 10 days ago, was my intervals. I was
running .35 miles, walking .20 miles and I started walking .20, then running
.80. Nearly cutting my walk distance in half per mile. I didn't start doing it
on purpose, I think I started doing it when time was tight before my childcare
ran out and it worked so I just adopted the new interval all the time. I hope
that the interval change, plus adding four miles per week is what did it and if
I change my intervals back I can adapt to the increase in mileage. I changed
the mileage last week without much long-term success, so, fingers crossed,
changing intervals will give me the change I need.
