Thursday and Friday training

I went to make jam on Thursday, but still got almost 3 miles of walking in.

Friday I walked 17 miles. In spite of my desire to keep this weekend a recovery weekend, I got sucked in and I walked 17 miles. Thankfully we walked on a bike path that was a railway, so it was flat. No hills. And there was lots of shade. It was mostly overcast anyway, but it was still nice to have the trees for the moments when it was sunny. Did I mention it was flat? And humid. It was really humid. But I have no blisters, and I used no moleskin. YAY! I still need different shoes. The soles on mine are getting a bit worn.

Week 17 plan

Monday: rest (greatly appreciated!)

Tuesday: 5 miles (um, I rested)

Wednesday: 45 minutes cross-training (does house cleaning count?)

Thursday: 6 miles (I'll get less than 5, but that is sufficient for my feet)

Friday: 45 minutes of cross-training

Saturday: 8 miles

Sunday: 6 miles

It is a "recovery" week on the schedule. Most of my team is switching this weekend with next weekend (and walking 17 for Saturday and 13 for Sunday). I haven't committed to that yet. I am feeling the need for a recovery week! So I am not sure which I will do...
