The Chicago Rock and Roll Half Marathon is fast approaching and I am having trouble increasing my miles. I am actually going backwards as each run seems to be a major effort and I feel more tried than usual during the effort. I feel fine afterwards but I just cannot increase my miles without feeling flat out exhausted during the run.

I only have 1 week till the race so I have already resigned myself to the fact that I will need to walk run this one to even survive. A bit depressing but it is better than just giving up and not trying and besides I can’t let my brother down and not hear him play.
