I appreciate it. :) I'm not surprised that the 'lift in my spirits' is noticeable in my posts - Week #6 was a little tough. :( After having such a great Week #8, I am DEFINITELY a big believer in recovery weeks!<br /><br />I am also looking forward to tackling that 26 km in EARLY 2012 when training for my first spring half marathon. :)<br /><br />Thank you again. :)Evil Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10762743613331530830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3022884412047022611.post-89615745539004027242011-08-11T14:01:26.319-04:002011-08-11T14:01:26.319-04:00An awesome read Evelynne.

I really like that you put in a easy week in your program they are so necessary. I just had one and it makes for a positive attitude and the chance for those legs to get some much needed rest.<br /><br />Smart idea to switch your LSD on the day and the distance. You will not harm your training at all and may just prevent an injury as well. Next year when you are stronger it will be OK. I too agree that you need to run longer that the race distance but you also have to be smart about it. You are being very smart about it.Runnerbillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09476176488293338945noreply@blogger.com
