How did your run feel today? 10 miles is good distance, you should be feeling comfortable-ish now on your shorter runs. In only four weeks time you will be classed as a half marathon runner; that is something to be proud of.
Make sure you spend plenty of time stretching today and try to do the Self Myofascial Release I told you about earlier in the week, at least on your calf muscles. You may also find that the muscles in your feet feel a little tight and tired; you can release these by rolling your foot on a tennis ball or golf ball, the latter being more intense.
Record your time from today’s 10 miler, this week we’re sticking with the same distance, but just trying to improve our time. Your home strength exercises are remaining the same this week also; next week they will become more challenging.
The official route still isn’t available to view online, but it is publish in the Cassidy Lady Godiva Coventry Half Marathon 2008 handbook, click here to get your copy.
