DC loop with a little extra. Got stood up by Logan Hooper for the second week in a row. (that's a joke on both ends boys). So it was just me and the road/ trail. Hip felt a lot better than the last two days but still hurts more than it should. The hammy felt great though. Spent most of the evening last night working both out with the hip routine, foam roller and sitting on the edge of the counter and using a softball to roll deep into it. Anyways it must have helped a little. But overall I just feel pretty flat with no pop. Quads and calves are carring fatigue over day after day where as a few weeks ago I had no recovery and felt freash and ready to hit it again daily. I think there is some neural fatigue going on:). If you can remember that then it showes your blog age...

20 miles on the spin trainer in 61 min's. Just a fairly ez spin out mostly for recovery to try and loosen everything up in the legs. Never really tried to push that hard.

20 more miles on the trainer. 60 min's. Basically the same effort as this morning. Not too hard.

4.2 miles right off the treadmill. 15 seconds in transition. A PR for me. bike shoes off. running shoes on. GO. Felt pretty good in the hip and hammy throughout the run. One really sharp pain about mile 3.7. I'll work them both over tonight agian like last night. Sometimes I stress myself out. Today was one of those days.

"Shows your blog age"...another reminder of me being old! ;)

Hope the hip and hammy continue to improve.

Glad the hammy felt better today. Gotta stay healthy because you're very fit. Be smart and take the recovery when/if your body tells you it needs it.

Just get out and go anaerobic for a step or two and things will get feeling better!

Ahh... the good ol' days.

Thanks Jeff and Riley.

Dave that one was the most classic ever. One step anaerobic to cross a cattle guard. not a jump. anaerobic all out. for one step.

Sometimes allie and I throw down 1 meter tempo runs. I do remember neural fatigue...
