AM - 6 miles with Finn on a damp cool morning mostly on the golf course. Lots of ups and downs. Not really feeling all that great on my runs lately. Left hamstring is giving me some negative feedback on uphills or if I try to push the pace; and I am kinda feeling like my energy levels are low. Hopefully thing will improve with some steady increase in volume at easy efforts.

AM - 5.25 miles with Finn at day break. Much colder this morning - mid 30's than yesterday. Resumed taking iron supplement on Sunday - and today felt some slight improvement in energy level (may or may not be related). Historically struggled with low ferritin levels - but ceased taking iron supplements ahead of my first heart stent - just coincidentally, not as a result of a doctor's recommendation. Going to get some labs done to get a baseline.

AM - 5 miles on the treadmill using Zwift to record on Strava. It was raining and 43 degrees outside - glad to have the indoor option on days like this.

AM - 4 miles with Dan on the trails with the dogs - his injury recovery is progressing well, and we only walked a couple of times briefly. Quite cold this morning - good conversation and a pretty sunrise.

AM - raining and 46 degrees outside - so I opted for a treadmill run indoors. Good run, continuing to feel better and stronger everyday with the iron supplement.

AM - 4 miles with Dan on the trails which were very muddy. Finn was a mess; got a proper bath afterwards.
