It's been almost a month since I finished the Rome Marathon. My recovery time seemed pretty quick since I literally boarded a plane the following day and have been traveling around the U.S for the last few weeks.
I took about ten days off after the marathon and in that time I've begun to treat the blisters on my feet. Over the last few days my toe nail has begun to turn purple. I'm pretty sure I have a blood blister underneath the nail-bed. I plan to pop it tonight and hopefully relieve the pressure under the nail.
The last few weeks have been focused on the idea that I completed 26.2 miles in a fairly descent time. It's not a sub-three hour but I'm proud of my time because I've learned so much in running. My biggest problem right now is controlling the thirst to do more races as well as the need to test myself.
As if 26.2 miles and the wounds I currently have isn't enough, the idea of running longer than a marathon has been at forefront of my thoughts.
