My thighs are still quite sore from Sunday’s marathon, but I went out for a two-mile jog anyway, just to let my legs know I still expect things from them. It was painful, but not in an alarming way. All the pain was in the muscles, none in the knees, ankles, or feet. My legs will get better quickly.
That’s my last road marathon for a while. My next goal race is the McKenzie River Trail Run, a stunningly beautiful 50K in September. I’m out to break five hours there. I am looking forward to hitting the trails for training this summer.
