I've started a new goal of increasing my daily mileage to a half marathon a day. Hence the unusual distance. Did  a 1K pickup of about 2:55.

Did 9 in the morning + 4.109 at night. Went to the gym as well to do strength exercises. Felt pretty tired after the second run.

My glutes were sore when I woke up this morning - so I ended up not doing a workout as planned. Ran 10 in the morning and discovered that in addition to my glutes being sore, my knees hurt as well. I suffered a lot more running 7:30 pace than I should have. Looks like I may have overdone it with the strength exercises yesterday. Ended up having to cut the evening run as I was still feeling some joint pain throughout the day.

Today the workout was 10x1000. My pacing was fairly uneven - the first quarter was around 66 to 67 for most of the intervals, after which I slowed down to 70-72. The first intervals were around 2:50 and 2:52 - by the end I was doing 2:58. I was able to stay under 3:00 for all of them, which I'm pretty happy about. Total of 16 miles today.
