Recovering from CECS

Lunges & light stretches. Easy run on Middle Road. My back is still a little tight.  It loosened up after a couple miles, but I'm still taking it very easy for a bit.  I've been stretching and using a foam roller on my back dailiy to rehab.  I hope to be back to normoal in another week or so.

4.11 miles.  30:09. 7:19/mile. 141 BPM.

Lunges & stretches.  Easy run in Middle Road.  Very warm & humid morning.  My back is feeling much better.  A few more days and it should be fine.  I hope my running gets better.  Taking a week off really goofed me up.  I feel very uncomfortable while runing.  I hope part of it is the weather...  4.06 miles.  29:51.  7:22/mile.  148 BPM.

Stretches & lunges.  Warm and muggy at the 1/2 mile track. My back is still sore.  2 miles into my run my left calf started bugging me so I stopped.  I'm a little annoyed.  2 weeks ago I was running 50+ miles a week without issues.  A bunch of walking in Boston and 6 hours of driving; now my back is a mess.....

2.1 miles.  15:54.  7:34/mile.  133 BPM.

Lunges & stretches.  My back feels a little better today and my calf feels better.  I think I'm going to go to the chiropractor this weekend.  Easy run at the 1/2 mile track.  4.14 miles.  31:44.  7:40/mile.  135 BPM.

Stretches & lunges.  Easy runat the 1/2 mile track.  Bacsk is feel much better and my HR is back where it should be, but my right calf is sore.  I'll take tomorrow off and let it rest.  4.15 miles.  30:42.  7:24/mile.  133 BPM.

Stretches & lunges.  Late afternoon run.  77 degrees and a little humid.  The black flies are really bad this summer!  Middle road.  Today is the first day in 2 weeks where my back and calves didn't hurt.  Musculoskeletal-wise I felt pretty good.  My HR is still out of whack, but it'll get back to normal in a bit.  

My diet was awful today too...  a double espresso mocha, iced coffee, a donut and a croissant. Caffeine and sugar rush followed by a huge crash.

6.27 miles.  45:31.  7:16/mile.  145 BPM.
