Trail drills for 40 minutes, then yoga class.
2 miles easy easy running (AP 14.2), followed immediately by 1.5 hours on the stationary. Added some intervals to this bike workout - 4X6 all out effort.

10 minutes drills on the trail, then 27.15 minutes of runnning, very very slowly. I think I am starting to enjoy slow running! Better than no running. 10 more minutes of drills at the end, and a few strides! Just to remind the speed muscles that I expect them to be on alert. These past few weeks, I feel that I am relearning to run from the very beginning. As much as I miss what I used to consider running, I am truly finding this period satisfying in a strange way. We will see where it all leads. Yoga class

Early early run, trying out some of my new reflective gear. I counted the drills in the mileage for the run this time, since I focused on drills where there was actual forward movement. You don't even want to know AP on this one! I actually slept last night really well for the first time in like two weeks. I think I dreamed. I've been a bit absent from this blog lately; my training plan is now all recorded on training peaks because my coach started that, so now I have two "blog" like things to maintain. I like you guys the best though, and I'll get myself organized to post in here more regularly again. Meantime, I have filled in this week with all workouts to date.
Off to yoga now.

| More drills and slow running at the track. This session lasted an hour and 20 minutes - long time to do drills. I tried some acceleration; still can't go fast, but its better. It has been so long since I had a workout that tired me out in any way; I think I will go absolutely bonkers. |

Early morning track work, slow running with drills. The session lasted one hour and 10 minutes. Obviously, I run more than 3 miles, but I don't really keep track in these drill workouts. It was cold! 45 degrees; I felt like I could have had gloves on this morning. Watched a gorgeous sunrise from the track. Bike ride this afternoon, still not raining, still cold (but warmer than this morning!), somewhat windy. I tried for a tempo like effort with a warm and cool down.
