<p>So here I am starting into the peak weeks of my training program, and my tail is dragging.  Foot hurts, right side is feeling tight and I'm tired all the time. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Question:   What are your clues that you are overtraining?  Are you quick to adjust your schedule or do you try to gut it out?  What were the consequences?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Last couple of weeks (sorry, the net ate my last totals update)</p>

<p>                    two weeks back.......................last week</p>

<p>Thanks Heme... I'm Ms Consistent, eh? Well, more like Ms Hasn't-Taken-A-Cutback-Week-In-5-Weeks-Now. Your question about determining when you're overtraining is very timely for me. I've been feeling really tired and sluggish lately, more hungry than I need to be, and just generally pooped. I probably should've rested more substantially after my HM two weekends ago, but I was feeling good and strong right afterward, and had the 5k coming up as well.... so now I'm paying the price this week. The self-imposed obligation to run everyday is a very strong force for me. I have to force myself to remember than not running is a worthwhile activity as well.</p>
