The 97th Hakone Ekiden finished with a dramatic come-from-behind victory by Komazawa University. Seeing all the athletes run to the best of their ability was a major motivation booster. I trained with renewed motivation.
My target race is on April 18. I have three months to train. My training regimen consists of 4 components: 1) jogging, 2) intervals, 3) tempo run, and 4) LSD.
Today's target it 1) jogging. I had a LSD session on Jan 29. I also did high intensity cardio on New Year's Eve. I ached all over for three days. There was still a lingering discomfort in my glutes, but that was not too bad to keep me from running.
I Google-mapped a new course and jogged for a little more than 11 K in shoes. Then I took them off to run another 2. 5 K to warm down. The temperature was below zero Celsius, and the soles felt pained from the cold. But it's something I cannot do without if I want to complete the race in April without shoes.
Tomorrow I hope to do intervals on a hilly course.
