I am already recovered from the weekend Relay. My legs are minimally sore and I figure I will take another day or two off before I hit the pavement again. I slept quite a bit over the weekend and caught up on sleep. I feel really good - powerful - today. No surprise there!

I finally did it! I hit my 1,000 miles during the Relay. It was longer than last year. At least that is how it seemed. I stopped at 9:20 am after 15 hours of walking. My knees were really hurting and my calves were on fire. I wasn't sure if it would be worth having an injury at that point and I felt I gave it my all. I did 304 total laps for 38 miles. I think I actually did less than 47 miles last year. Maybe the lap counter was incorrect? I will never know but I can say I felt like I walked more this year than last year. So, my goal of 50 miles wasn't reached but I'm not complaining about what I did accomplish. Being on a running track gave me a standard to follow. Next year the Relay is supposed to be at the same place so if I go again, I will know how to decide my goals. Until then, I will continue to walk/run as I have been doing and keep my health to an optimum.
