I think my body got the message from my brain. It's almost as if my decision to make this a recovery week was quickly accepted. I am out of gas!
I knew even on Sunday when I ran the trails that I was extremely tired, and then my bike ride yesterday was also kind of weak.
Today I went for a "short" long run of 15 kms and managed 12 before I started walking.
I think it's probably all good, or at least I'm gonna try to accept it as confirmation that recovery weeks are a good thing.
I have decided that I will do my usual Wednesday thing minus the weights, and then that will be it for the week, other than perhaps a bit of swimming.
Of course it scares the hell out of me from a fitness perspective, and believe it or not I also worry about eating too much!
Man I'm a nut!
