Clyde's Comeback!

B-hills loop extended up the river to River Road. I've been trashed all weekend after moving this tuff shed and then painting, restoring, landscaping ect around it. Then the big workout on Saturday followed by a full day of more work on the shed and moving stuff into it. Needless to say I didn't want to start the week today. But I got out and made my way around the trail. Actually started to loosen up and enjoyed the morning running. Hope to keep my head above water this week and just get in somewhere between 65-85 miles. Not sure whats going to happen as we're just busy little bees right now. 

9.1 miles around the same loop as this morning. I had some unexpected time open up this afternoon. My mother-in-law called and wanted to watch Myler... so I ran. Pretty windy on the first half. But it helped push me home on the second half. 

B-hills river loop again. I was dead this morning and limped around at about a 7:35 avg. Just couldn't get the legs to go. Mik'L rolled my hammies last night so that's part of the reason. Ready for spring!

It was too cold and windy to take Myler out in the jogger this afternoon/ evening. And by the time Mik'L got home from work I had lost the desire to run. So we went to Smashburger instead. 

Normal old B-hills loop. It was chilly at around 20 F. I shouldn't complain because it's way worse in other parts of the world or even state. I was bundled up with lots of layers so I really didn't get too cold. The layers however made it harder to run. 

5.2 miles on the treadmill this evening. The wind was just howling out and I didn't want to mess with it. I had decided the outside temp wasn't too bad but the wind was. Anyways I was LOL while running because I was watching Tropical Thunder on FX. There was some pretty funny parts. 

4 miles on the treadmill. It was 16 F outside at first light and I made a business decision to stay inside this morning. The treadmill sucked but I wasn't going to go very long anyways. 

10.1 miles around the river loop from the DC with the club. 6:37 avg for the run. Had some stomach issues and had to do a trail side...

Ran from my in-laws. Dropped Myler off to play with Grandpa and then hit basically the same loop as last nights club run. Couldn't get into any kind of groove and felt really flat. Pace felt slow and I was surprised to see I still ended with a 7:00 min avg for the run. Nothing fancy today other than the weather is a lot better than earlier this week. 

Big Workout at the DC. Meet up with a good group of local yocals. The workout was to do 6x 4 min's @ LT pace with a 2 min recovery. So we did around a 5 mile warm up around the trail and through B-hills then started the sets from the freeway down into Bloomington. Dave and I hit all our sets at around a 5:15 avg and Logan and Aaron were a little faster than us. I didn't keep the splits separate but rather just let the garmin run continuous the entire run.  A pretty solid workout from start to finish and then a longish cool down back. 6:51 avg for the entire run.
