Nice and easy miles out in Hooper this morning. 6:38 average. Left IT band felt a bit tight, but nothing crazy, I also was wearing shorts, so that may not have helped that situation. Effort felt very relaxed.

The legs felt more tired today than they did yesterday. About a mile in my left quad felt really tight, but it loosened up. 6:30 average, but probably should have run a little easier today.

Really windy for the run, which didn't help a whole lot. My legs felt really heavy and tired today. 6:33 average. In the second half I did 6x30 second pickups. I'm also longing for the hills of Cache Valley already.

Bipolar temperature kind of run depending on whether or not I was running against the wind. The wind was pretty brutal and very cold. Tried to just relax and not push too hard, but I did get as much uphill as I can in West Point, which isn't a ton, but better than nothing. 6:36 average. Legs felt much better today. Yesterday I made it a point to eat some protein after my run, and didn't foam roll.

Easy morning, I was overdressed as I thought it was colder than it actually was. Beautiful morning and I was just enjoying being out running. 6:36 average.

Stayed up until 1:30 last night, and I feel that that was probably the biggest factor in why my run didn't go as well as I would have liked. The first six and a half miles or so my stomach didn't feel very settled. I also could tell my legs didn't seem to have any pop or spring to them and 6:30s felt fairly hard. I was also running through snow and slush for the first 11 miles of the run. I started to feel a little better about 8 miles into the run. My left knee was bothering me in the middle of the run, but I think it got bruised somehow. 6:31 average. I was kind of bummed that I didn't have the best long run, but pretty quickly I realized I have a lot to be grateful for. What was an off run for me, is something most people can't even dream of doing. There are also people around me that are going through much greater physical challenges.
