Comments: An extra day off turned into a week-long hiatus. Any number of things were responsible for each skipped workout but the honest truth is I really didn't want to run. Maybe it's the cumulative effect of constant training the last few months but I really just dreaded the idea of getting a run in.
But, I have to get ready for January so the respite is over. I got the run in, but it really wasn't anything special. I didn't have any issues, particularly the right calf soreness that persisted after the race. So, hopefully, this week of rest will have been good for my recovery.
