Last night I set out on a recovery run with my friend Kyle. Unfortunately, I'm still experiencing a very unique soreness in my quadriceps. After three miles my muscles just become extremely heavy and drained no matter what pace I'm going. These past two months I've been putting in more mileage than I ever have, maybe that's the cause?
5 Mile Recovery - 44:44.72 (8:57 avg.)
Mile 1 - 8:35
Mile 2 - 8:24
Mile 3 - 8:27
Mile 4 - 9:20
Mile 5 - 9:56 (30 second walkbreak)
As one can see, after three there was just nothing left and it was a recovery run! I've been putting in 40mpw, while not alot, is something my body is not use to ever attaining for a long period of time. I might take a day or two off to get fresh, any ideas?
