Hi Rebels, I hope your Friday is going well!
Tomorrow is the end of week 11 of my half marathon training and next week is the half marathon. Well, it looks like the route this week is 12 miles, 10.5 of it is the actual race course. The good thing is that we are skipping the more hilly section. Plus, do to the fact that my left leg IT band is giving my fits due to over training or possibly from wrong type of shoe, I think I am going to take it easy and not worry about my performance.
I am thinking about using an older pair of shoes (semi retired) and take my shoes in question back to the running store. I have been struggling of late with finding shoes that can handle my higher weekly mileage without causing major blisters. They thought I needed a more neutral shoe to stop the blistering on my inner heel, but I am afraid that the shoe is not giving me the support I need from a stability shoe. So, maybe I did not over train after all.
Anyway, have a great weekend everyone!
