The last month has really sucked for running, as I’ve mentioned before.
I’ve only been out about once a week during this stretch instead of my more typical three times and this week when I was planning on getting back into a regular routine I got hit by a throat infection. I’m tentatively planning on resuming runs on Thursday, which will mark ten days since the last run. That’s enough to lose a decent bit of conditioning, although perhaps the rest will help offset some of that.
The current forecast for Thursday is for a high of 27ºC (unseasonably warm) and humid, the two things that go great together for a yucko run. But it would only be 5K so maybe it won’t be so bad. I’m hoping that writing this out will make this assessment seem more convincing. You know, I read it on the Internet, it must be true and all that.
