Legs are super sore (especially my left glute).  Took it really easy.  Felt a little nauseous half way through the run.  It seems like I always feel this way after a race.  Very strange.

Why did I run today?  I didn't sleep last night, I feel nauseous and my legs are still crazy sore.  What kind of day would it be if it didn't start with a run?  I wouldn't know what to do with myself.  Ran at a super slow pace and felt alright once I got going.  Will continue with the short and slow runs until I feel pep in my legs again.

The recovery continues.  Feel a little better each day.

It was warm this morning and very windy.  I guess a storm is blowing in so I enjoyed what is probably the last warm weather run for awhile.  Other than a little soreness in my joints, my legs feel like they have recovered.  Felt good at my 5 mile turn so I kept going.  Did the same thing at the 6 and 7 mile turn.  It was a good run even though it was slow.

That was weird.  Got to the top of the street (0.3 miles) and something didn't feel right.  It wasn't the legs but something was telling me not to run this morning.  Turned around and went back home.  Cannot explain it.  Guess I just needed a break.

Was up early this morning (dang body clock) so I went to the LPT to get in a few miles before the club run.  I knew the run with the club would be short so I was glad that I got out early to get in a few extra miles.  The battery in my Garmin is dead so I am guessing on the mileage but am pretty sure it is close.  Ran 10 miles on the trail and passed Kathie on the way back.  Didn't recognize her at first since she wasn't wearing her blue jacket.  I was still very early and didn't want to stand around that long before starting up again so I grabbed a drink from the car and headed back out for 1.5 more miles.  Kathie was right at my turn around spot so I ran back with her.  Met up with the club and ran 4.5 miles with Trevor.  Either I didn't take in enough fuel or my body isn't processing it very efficiently because I really started to feel hypoglycemic 1.5 miles into the last segment of the run.  I started seeing spots as we went into the tunnel and my arms and hands were tingling.  This lasted for 1.5 miles then the last mile felt a lot better.  I thought about the pop tart that I had in my car the entire time and that is all that kept me going.  When I got back to my car, it was gone.  Guess I ate it before the run and forgot.  Glad to get the mileage in and despite the 2 miles of being low, the run felt good.
