Tore my trapezius earlier this week while lifting. I couldn't stand up or lay down on my own for a couple days and now it just hurts. It hurt during today's run but wasn't too bad. I figure a good run will help it recover faster anyways.

Today was a good one but I can't just become a weekend warrior. I need to run every Wednesday and every Sunday at the minimum.

1/10 of a marathon on the treadmill. Busiest week of the semester so far.

7 miles averaging 6:30, including a 5:28 mile. Pretty solid day. I'm planning on running again Sunday for anywhere between 4 and 10 miles.

Today I just felt like running more, I initially had only planned on running 2-4 miles. One of my students invited me to a party tonight while I was at the gym after my run. That was kind of funny, I told him I might be going out with other grad students, cool guy though.

I lifted for the first time since I tore my trapezius, just some curls because I knew those wouldn't hurt my traps at all.

Glad I'm through this week, it's been a pretty good one though.
