The Recovery Continues
13/4/05
After a nice relax in the pool yesterday afternoon, the legs continue to improve. Today I decided to do my favourite 10.5km loop and covered it in just under 51 minutes. Average HR was around 140 and it felt very relaxed. The legs felt a little heavy towards the end but better than they have so soon after any previous marathon I have run. This is quite strange, as during the last 10km on Sunday, they were the worst they have felt towards the end of a marathon. So much, that I thought they were more bashed up than 6 Foot Track. I guess it is just the monotonous pounding of bitumen as well as the heat that was sending me these messages.
