10+4
Got up and ran this morning before starting a 24 hour work shift. I was suprised that my legs were not that sore. Tempo runs on the treadmill usually really beat up my legs. Now, many hours later the soreness is coming. That is probably a bad sign. I might be in bad shape for a few days, but it doesn't really matter because I am starting a week of the night shift so my ruinning won't be very good anyway.
Actually, I just calculated that in the 7 day period beween 8 AM today and 8 AM next Friday I will be spending 98-100 hours in the hospital, assuming that I don't get stuck late for some reason. There's only 168 total hours in a week. That doesn't leave much time to do the important things in life, so my mileage will surely take a hit. It also does not bode well for the half marathon I am running next weekend. |
