Day 4,380—Back to Normal—
This week has been just as crazy as last week, minus the violent sickness, with less than 48 hours until a race, so that’s good, and today I felt surprisingly better. I noticed my run started out slow, but I was strictly focused on form for the first mile, which I think I want to keep doing. I need to go back to basics, like I did when I first started running ultra distances: focus on feeling good while I am running, take frequent breaks, drink plenty of water, and keep my big toe hitting the ground and my feet underneath me. I need to float over the ground silently, and it is not like I have forgotten all about it but I have been focused on so many other things during my running but I have to admit doing 6 races where I ran at least 100 miles last year was a lot, possibly too much, so maybe doing 6 this year isn’t a good idea but I don’t like a big gap between races either. This year, I will have a race at the end of October and then anoth...
