The day's not over, but I don't think that I will do any kind of a run today. Amazingly, I am not as sore as I thought I may have been from completion of yesterday's 16 mile long run. Early on my thighs were a bit sore, right knee and tendon behind it on the right were as well. My hips have gotten a bit sore too, but nothing like what I thought I may be feeling like today. I had considered doing a 3 - 4 mile very easy recovery run, just to loosen up a bit, but I kinda think just resting may be best for me today. I have 4 miles scheduled for tomorrow on my training plan, then 8 on Tuesday.
I really thought I might be feeling like this today after my run yesterday:
I know... I'm going a little crazy with this "YouTube" stuff. Sorry, I can't help myself!

So, did you give in and go running? :)
I felt like I needed to go running today because of my shortened run yesterday, but I didn't give in. I have 4 scheduled the next two mornings so I can wait.
enjoy your rest/victory day!! I love that Day After video...it seriously cracks me up every.time.I.see.it. hahaha!!
Thanks for visiting, you are doing great with your training.
hey Rick
I took yesterday off, too. I've got some kinda achy/tight feeling behind/beside my right knee. It doesn't hurt when I run but if I try straighten my leg out, it pulls a bit. So I thought taking yesterday off might help it out some.
I hope you enjoyed your rest day and had fun with the family:)
Didn't give in, Tim. My hips got progressively sorer as the day went on. I think I could have managed a short easy run had I chose to do so, but I felt it best to rest. Hey, I just rhymed!
Thanks, Jennifer... always great to hear from you! The first time I saw that video, I about wet myself I was laughing so hard!
Thanks for stopping by Dawn and the encouraging words! Hope you look in ocassionally. ;-)
Mar, I had kinda that same pulling. It's better today though, so no excuses for me. Keep up your GREAT work! You AMAZE me in your training!
Very funny stuff from Youtube - and great blog, Rick -- Fun to read - I enjoyed your retelling of your recent long run!
Run on!
Great video - I have been there many times!
Wow, 16 miles in one day--very impressive. You wouldn't have known it the way you sang on Sunday!
You are my hero!
Rick,
Sounds like you had a deserved day for resting. Great day after video.
Robert
