| AM - 4 miles easy recovery- cool temps. Right hamstring is a little tweaked. Need to focus on nutrition, stretching and rest - all of which were a bit off this past week.

| AM - 5 miles solo on Nix - right hammy had very little residual from what I thought yesterday was a slight tweak. Did really well with running easy, improved nutrition (no sugar) and yoga.

| AM - Treadmill tempo - 3 x 12 mins @ HM+ pace - with a 3 min rest. 1.5 mile warm up and .5 mile cool down. Did this workout two weeks ago in Central Park in NYC; thought about going to Milton HS to do laps around the perimeter of the parking lots to get a flat course - but got started a little later than planned this morning, and with the bridge still out on Freemanville, the drive to the HS takes longer and I did not have the time. The treadmill turned out to be ok regarding the hamstring - I noticed it a little before starting but not really impacted negatively or even noticably during the workout. I felt decent for this one; I used the Garmin Workout feature which programs the entire workout from start to finish - and for this one, I was targeting between 153 and 158 bpm on my HR; the first 12 min rep was mostly at 7:08 pace after the first few minutes - and the HR was148; the second two were at 7:13 pace and the HR was 152, and 154 respectively. Max HR was 160 and that was on the last one. I felt solid and though it was hard, I think I could have done another rep of 12 mins if it was on the schedule.

| AM - 5.25 miles through North Bluff - easy recovery effort. Pleasant run, though very dark and foggy at times - not much to see except what my headlamp reveals.

| AM - just under 4.5 miles with Dan from his place. Couple of walking segments with him due to his knee, but always good to have a run with a friend and share some time together.

| AM - 9.75 miles with the group of 4 which included Darryl, Dan and Greg. I started early knowing I was doing more mileage than the rest of them; Darryl joined me at about 2.5 miles and then we connected with Dan and Greg just as I was a little over 5 miles in; and then we slowed a bit for them, enjoyed the conversation and the stellar weather, and sunrise.
