This has to be the most difficult period of time following a marathon. Nothing hurts, in particular, and some days I feel just great when I run, but when I reach a certain point (three miles on my first day back running), I feel EXACTLY like I did in mile 20 of the marathon. I hit the wall, hard. There is nothing left in my account,and I realize that it will take time for it to build up again through the slow process of training, rest, and good nutrition.
Monday I went six miles before beginning to wear out - can I go seven today?
