Haven't been able to figure out the source of my tiredness lately. Is it muscle fatigue or cardio fitness? I don't know. When I focus on isolating the source it seems like neither individually is the cause.
... needless to say, I felt tired today ....

objective
5 mi.
achieved
7.26 mi.@ 8:52
Added on 2 miles for what I missed yesterday. Yes, I know it doesn't work like that ....
Wondering about yesterday's failed 16-miler and how I generally felt today. Sure, like anyone else who falls short I've got excuses: not sleeping enough, not eating right, high stress at work, find myself oddly homeless yet paying to live in 3 places at the same time (what is up with that?!?!???), too much commuting between Houston and Chicago, etc. But it occurred to me during this morning's run. My collapse came at the end of a 53-mile week. I think that's it. The variables have some influence, of course. And taken alone, I think none would be a problem. But it's simply the accumulated volume of running I did last week. And in the marathon training cycle, that's the way it should be. The training benefit of serious training runs supposedly manifests itself about 3 weeks after the run was completed. Today I'm 34 days from the marathon. I've got about another 10 days of meaningful training for the marathon.
... trying not to lose hope for marathon goals .... This is the way I'm supposed to be feeling right now.
