Second marathon in the books
Hey,
Today’s a short one. I’m still in the midst of recovering from a marathon and it’s taking longer than I expected. My body is punishing me after I punished it on Sunday.
What surprised me most was how effective our training plan was. I managed to finish the run without much of a hitch. My hamstrings were edging to cramp for the last 10-15km but never fully got there, thankfully. No actual cramps, no wall, no nausea, just running for almost 4 hours up and down too many hills. Same with Liz running her FIRST marathon ever. #blessed. #proud.
It’s fortuitous timing that as my running season ends, my Write of Passage season begins. Unlike a marathon, WOP is a fast and furious 5-week sprint. We are already a week in and I’m feeling overwhelmed despite having completed the course before. I’ve been taking on so much writing lately so I’m just doing my best to keep my head above water while working.
Anyway, that’s all for me this week. I’ll share what I’m writing as it gets published.
Time for some pizza.
