Week 8 of Half Marathon Training

This week has been a rough week, instead of increasing the mileage like I'm suppose to this week, I'm taper off this week.  I will be running 26 miles instead of 28 miles.  I have had a little time to reflect this week and the biggest thing that I'm learning on this journey in training for this race is learning to reconnect with my inner self and listening to my body, which I have chosen to ignore in the past and have end up with injuries and other issues.  Right now, I like after taking two days of rest has helped reset my body and get back out and run today.
