It's probably time to buy some technical gear

Had a club run from McCarren along Kent to the BQE and back. It was way warmer than I anticipated, and I was as usual overdressed in non-technical gear. I sweat buckets and got cold when we stopped to do core. The run itself was lovely, 7 miles at a moderate pace. I definitely felt yesterdays workout, and will be skipping the early long run tomorrow to rest up, and may ditch track work for a recovery run. We shall see.

I'm so looking forward to our Sunday Funday Runday with the first timers crew training for Jersey that I may take extra rest in order to be ready for a good run. The weather is supposed to blow goat dick, which is where a group really helps.

I just three weeks I'm going to be into my first week of marathon specific training. Even though my mileage will back off for the first couple of weeks, I need to resist the urge to over-train between now and then. That said, just because I know better intellectually, I'm not going to beat myself up over a few beginner mistakes.

See you on the road.
