After a looong day I got out for a good canyon run after work. Exhaled the craziness and inhaled some awesome. Much better. Got a nice climb in too. Happy Monday! 6:53

Took a much needed beating yesterday at the sports masseuse. Not the most pleasant thing but necessary. Started very slow and gradually picked it up. Finished feeling great with 8 x100 m strides at mp. 7:22

Last long-ish run with Matt, Mike, Zak, and Reed. It was cold :)! We ran easy with some tempo towards the end. It was fun to run most of the push together. I ran a 5k. 5:25, 5:27, 5:44. I backed off the last mile to MP. Everything feels good with a week to go. We stopped afterward to pick up some bottles for next week. I picked up and devoured a maple bacon donut that officially topped off the hay in the barn. Bacon for the win! Seriously so excited. Today I felt like a cyborg :).
