It's hard to stop myself from thinking, "well shit, it's very likely I will hit my goal-time this race, so how fast do I think I could run the same distance in 3-4 months at the next one?.. :15/mile? More??"<br /><br />Then a tremendous level of cautious-guilt overcomes me and I mentally chastise myself. <br /><br />However, I don't think it hurts to look at potential future races, b/c unless you injure yourself you'll either be building on the positive or trying to rebound from the negatives of your upcoming race.<br /><br />You seem very-well focused and prepared on the training/racing front, but do you have a similarly detailed plan for recovery post-race? Other than "we'll see how I feel," I'm struggling to find something I can use as a guide.Sean in NYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13431152549351773692noreply@blogger.com
