It took me three days to recover from last Sunday's half marathon. My legs were so sore and stiff, that I waddled like a duck when I walked. But it's all good now.
I had a massage the day after the race. It felt good, but a couple of times I felt my ankles were going to snap whenever the masseuse would draw circles with my toes. So note to self: wait a few days before getting a massage.
A recap of last week's runs:
| MON :: | recovery | |
| TUE :: | recovery | |
| WED :: | recovery | |
| THU :: | 4.22 mi | 11:02 pa |
| FRI :: | 3.37 mi | 9:53 pa |
| SAT :: | 6.0 mi | 10:41 pa |
| SUN :: | 7.33 mi | 10:34 pa |
| TOTAL :: | 20.92 mi |
Reached the Nike+ Top 4 spot in the Philippines for overall distance today, yippee! I remember a time not so long ago, when I ranked in the 90s. I've come a long way...

btw, currently reading "love in the time of cholera" so i'm loving old names, such as yours :-D
