My legs felt tired this week. Also my knees are starting to hurt. For me that means time for a new pair of shoes. Four weeks to the African Centurion Qualifier. A little R&R and great food in Vegas then just nice easy Centurion pace work. The goal is to arrive in Africa with rested legs.

Tough walk on Sunday. I don’t know why. Some days you just don’t feel the love. If You want to be a Centurion this is good training. During a 100 mile race there will be times you will not feel the love. We still train when it is not fun. We get through it. We gut it out. We finish. In a race you will have some rough patches. You don’t stop. You gut it out. You Finish. You will need that kind of mental training if you intend to become a Centurion. I also skipped some strength workouts. I always have a spell like this between recovery and preparation for my next race. I call it a reset. There, I am now reset. Seven weeks to Africa.
