Dear Innovative Results,
I need your advice…I am increasing in my mileage like a crazy woman, but I feel good about it and I am doing great…except one thing…my long run today was 20 miles =) in 3 hrs, it was a great run except my legs were giving up on me…I had enough energy to keep going, but once I slowed down it was like, “HOLY CRAP! This freakin hurts!” Though the pain was in my quads and hip flexors..Is there anything I can do in my training to strengthen my legs…I feel like I am doing great runs throughout the week…maybe more sprints? Or try to incorporate more strength training?…if that is the case, then what can I do? I appreciate your help! Oh and the count down begins…4 WEEKS til the big day…26.2!
