Saturday, Jan 18- Transition runs

3.13m- 9:42pace
8am- 58degrees

continuing the transition to a strike point that is further forward on my foot. Its not easy to find the sweet spot of where my foot should strike while taking pressure off the point where I have recurring problems. its a little disheartening to not be able to do the same miles I was doing just a couple of weeks ago. I am determined to make this transition and become an even better runner as a result. It's going to be an uphill climb, and there is not a chance I will be able to complete the LA marathon as originally planned. Thats very disappointing, I won't lie, but with this run I realized there is just too much progress to make in too short a time, and pressuring myself to get there would guarantee that I would be injured again. And take some of the fun out of the event itself. If I'm going to do this full marathon thing I want to be able to really experience it, not just struggle through it and feel like i'm going to die the entire time.
