Day 77 - Rest

I feel like whenever I take an unscheduled rest day, it's always for the same reason, I know my body needs it.

After that ridiculous run last Thursday, I think it was pretty much necessary to take a little break. I still would definitely consider skiing as cross training, seeing how sore my quads and shoulders have been all day. But my blisters and hip/knee pain are practically gone since I didn't keep pushing myself. Hopefully when I get back on track tomorrow the problems won't arise again.

A lot of times too, rest days find themselves because of a shortage of time. I made an extended stop at home after Vermont this morning--filled with errands, car washes, baked mac&cheese with flank steak, chats, and a Belle fitting session. But again, my mind and body definitely needed it. :)
